This is how it works.

I don't know if it is "default behavior" or not, but just going by memory, I don't remember htick announcing an error if a file of the same name is already in the fileecho, and there is no REPLACES tag, but I could be wrong. I just don't see a lot of errors with htick, as it's pretty solid at it's job.
