This is hopefully a simple question, but I've been unable to discover how to
do it.
Did you read the Emacs manual?
How does one configure emacs so it will stop leaving ~ files around?
>From (emacs)Backup:
For most files, the variable `make-backup-files' determines whether
to make backup files. On most operating systems, its default value is
`t', so that Emacs does write backup files.
