Re: temporary files not deleted after exit

[James Sherman Jr.]

I believe that any files that you create as part of the command line or script would not be considered temporary.  In fact, the save command is used (at least as I use it) specifically so that you can load data across octave sessions or for other programs.

According to octave-info:

"When Octave exits all temporary files will be deleted, so this step need
not be executed manually."

I would assume that a temporary file created as follows

octave> a = pi ;
octave> save(tmpnam, "a") ;

would be deleted after exiting, but it is not. Am I misunderstanding
something?
