MAKE AUTOMATIC BACKUP FOR MOUSEPAD

This isn't necessarily a bug, but rather a feature request, since the other site doesn't support making a request. However, I think what's needed is important:

  1. Many users use mousepad instead of nano, and that's why we run sudo mousepad /etc/.........
  2. Sometimes we make mistakes, either due to inexperience, lack of knowledge, or because we've asked some artificial intelligence how to improve a configuration.
  3. The only request is this: an automatic backup should be generated, with automatic numbering, ranging from 01 to 99 (I don't think anyone makes more than 100 variations of a file, but it's possible to exceed 10).

For example, if I edit fstab sudo mousepad /etc/fstab and it has been modified and saved, the backup could be: /etc/fstab.bacup01 /etc/fstab.bacup02 /etc/fstab.bacup03 ........

It's very useful because not everyone knows everything there is to know. We need to use Linux to do things and we are not necessarily "power users"
