@defvar auto-save-list-file-name
This variable (if non-@code{nil}) specifies a file for recording the
names of all the auto-save files. Each time Emacs does auto-saving, it
writes into this file the names of all the auto-save files of all the
buffers that have auto-save enabled. If Emacs crashes, you can look in
this file to find all the auto-save files that might contain work that
was otherwise lost. The @code{multi-replace} command uses these files.
The default name for this file is in your home directory and starts with
@samp{.saves-}. It also contains the Emacs process @sc{id} and the host
name.
