Hello,
If you have a program that needs to write data to temporary files, does BB4W/BBCSDL have a feature that lets you know the path to the temporary files folder? As far as I know, In linux it's usually /tmp/, but I don't know where windows would keep its temp folder.

Edit: Thanks Richard for the answer, @tmp$ was precisely what I needed.

Re: Temporary files
@tmp$ is probably what you want, but it's typically a 'per user' temporary folder rather than shared system-wide. It's implemented (along with @cmd$, @dir$, @lib$ and @usr$) in all editions of BB4W and BBCSDL. You'll find it documented here.
Richard.
