Details:

To reproduce:

1. In Edwin, browse a directory in dired where you have some numbered autosave
files, e.g., 'foo.txt.~12~'.  Position your cursor on one of these files.

2. M-: (ge '(edwin dired))

3. M-: (pathname-type (dired-current-pathname))

Expected behavior is that it returns "txt", since that is the file type.

Actual behavior is that it returns "~12~".
