Not sure this is the right place to ask, but...

I'm trying to chain some ccp4 programs together via a script.
It creates temporary files with arbitrary names based on the process id.
The problem is that when I try to pass one of these files to the
next program in the chain, as in:

   tlsanl XYZIN $tempfile <<EOF
   ...
   EOF

The ccp4 libraries seem to expand this to be an input file named
   $tempfile.brk

Is there any way to make the programs _not_ append a useless extension
".brk"  in a scripted environment?
