from texmf.cnf, and $TMP doesn't exist on mac,
Which is odd, to say the least. Where *do* temporary files go on OSX?
i think that only mf still has a pool file (and probably also tex and etex and omega and aleph)
As far as I know, Akira got rid of them in W32TeX (but not 100% sure).
To /tmp, but there is no $TMP or $TEMP defined anywhere.
weird, maybe they use some apple name, like $WASTEBIN or $THRASH
No. They use /tmp. I guess. Mojca
