To /tmp, but there is no $TMP or $TEMP defined anywhere. weird, maybe they use some apple name, like $WASTEBIN or $THRASH
We already had that discussion: very few systems actually set TMP or TEMP (the first public releases of Mark IV used to assume it was set,
few? afaik all windows and linux systems -)
and subsequently created luatex-cache in the current directory since it wasn't).
anyhow, taco and i decided now to default as follows: if CACHEPATH is not set: cachepath = os.env["TEXMFCACHE"] or os.env["TMP"] or os.env["TEMP"] or os.env["TMPDIR"] or os.get["HOME"] or os.env["HOMEPATH"] or nil in texmfcnf.lua one can set up his/her personal preferences (both taco and i use $TEMP cq. $TMP) Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
