Thanks for all your suggestions, they help this module to grow up.
What is tmpdir?
Every PERL tool use temporary files.
If you want your code can be simply portable on different OS, you need
to select the correct temporary directory. The purpose of this module
is to check the correct temporary directory in every OS supported by
PERL to use it.
We need your help.
We ask you to send us the correct tempory directory for every OS
supported by PERL and to suggest us good modifies (
[email protected]).
The news:
The default Mac OS directory can be found with the FindFolder toolbox
function
use Mac::Files;
$tmp = FindFolder(kOnSystemDisk,kTemporaryFolderType);
However, MacPerl automatically assigns this directory to $ENV{TMPDIR}.
