how to sync files in linux - command prompt?

dexterous

I see the following files in my directory -

-rw-rw-r-- 1 sjos sjos  401 Oct 12 15:29 Makefile
-rw-rw-r-- 1 sjos sjos  401 Oct 12 15:29 Makefile~
-rw-rw-r-- 1 sjos sjos  336 Oct 12 15:12 testIfaceIndex.c
-rw-rw-r-- 1 sjos sjos  336 Oct 12 15:12 testIfaceIndex.c~

My question is how can I get rid of the file Makefile~ and testIfaceIndex.c~? I have tried the command sync on the folder but it didn't work. how can I sync the files? What is the complete command to do so?

sync command flush file system buffers. for more info about sync see

man sync

When you use gedit as a editor then gedit create these file. These files are backup file of your original file with name ~. you can disable this in preference setting of gedit. change

and reduce Autosave time. next time it will not create backup file.
