A temporary file with ~ at the end

[fdrov]

Hi! Thx for the lib. After info.save() it creates a temporary file with ~ at the end.
Windows 11, python 3.9. There is any way to close file, something like info.close()?

I have to look into it, and PR would be reviewed related to this if you want to try to implement something.

Created here, I think

iptcinfo3/iptcinfo3.py

Line 700 in dfbfd90

shutil.move(newfile, "{file}~".format(file=newfile))

It seems like it's intended to not create this file if you do something like .save('overwrite') or .save(options='overwrite') but that doesn't work for me.

I don't have time to look into this, I would just add a line in python to remove it if you really want to force remove that. I think it should auto-clean that up when the code completes. If someone wants to sponsor this project I can look back at it.

This issue has been fixed in this PR: #29. However, the version has not been updated on PyPI meaning that people can't get to it.

I thought it was updated in pypi? I will check on this. Thanks for the heads up.
