The backup file's name will be the same as original file's name but suffixed with a ~ symbol. Hence, for the file called `file1` the backup copy would have the name `file1~`. Backup files are hidden by default. To enable this behaviour, access gedit's Preferences panel (for GNOME Shell users, this can be found in gedit's global menu). In the preferences panel, click on the *Editor* tab and tick the option *Create a backup copy of files before saving.* ## Spell Checking In order to use spell checking in gedit you need an [aspell](/index.php/Aspell "Aspell") dictionary. ## Plugins Some plugins are available in the [gedit-plugins](https://www.archlinux.org/packages/?name=gedit-plugins) package. ### Adding and making custom plugins A plugin that shows errors while you type for languages like C, C++, etc, is available as [gedit-code-assistance](https://www.archlinux.org/packages/?name=gedit-code-assistance). ## See also * [Apps/Gedit - GNOME Wiki!](https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Gedit)
