Hi,

So until further ideas, he will probably no nothing about it. Feel free
to contact him.

Hi,

upstream writes:
=========================================================================
I don't think a hidden directory is a good idea.  xv, which he mentions
as an
example, keeps thumbnails there, an entirely different thing.

Dia should remove autosave files when quitting, that it doesn't is
certainly a bug.
=========================================================================

So I will just keep this bug open to track the latter issue.

bye,
  Roland
