    In Preferences - Backup, there is function “Backup on save” with 3 options: None, Simple backup, Verbose backup. What exactly is this? Thanks for answer.

      In my experiments today (np++ backup feature is new to me), it seems that the simple backup keeps a copy of the most recent save, and that it, per file. The verbose backup seems to make multiple copes of the same file, but as far as I can see, not a new file at every file save.
