[GRASS-user] Using g.tempfile

[Stefan Blumentrath]

Temp files are normally stored in the mapset (e.g. /grassdb/location/mapset/.tmp/YOURCOMPUTER/12345.0)

It can be partly controlled where tempfiles are stored using environment variables:

Subject: [GRASS-user] Using g.tempfile

   Running v.surf.tps stops after ~40% because it runs out of room to write a temp file. I assume that /tmp is the default directory for these files.

   The g.tempfile manual page wants a pid number. I can get this when I invoke the command, but not before. What's the recommended procedure for telling grass where to put temporary files prior to executing a running command?

TIA,

Rich
