Subject: Ignore Emacs flymake temp files
Flymake is a feature in Emacs where you get on-the-fly highlighting of compilation errors. An annoyance is that it creates a temp file called lib/My/Module_flymake.pm which gets picked up my Module::Pluggable. Can we add this regex to the sub _is_editor_junk? return 1 if $name =~ /\w_flymake\.pm$/; Sorry, no test. /J

I'm very reluctant to do this. I only added in the ignore editor junk stuff under sufferance and one of my worries was that I'd end up having to add in every single brand of editor tmp file. The especially worrying thing about this is that package My::Module_flymake; is completely legal and valid. You can always use the exclude directive to ignore stuff (or patch Flymake to stick a copy in the tmp directory like it does with Java) so unless you can give me a really convincing argument I'm afraid I'm not really willing to do this.
