Why not use a directory in /tmp/ for temporary files? I'm probably
not the
only one who has $HOME on a network file system with limited quota.
Of course, I could add a soft link from .ooolilypond-tmp to /tmp/.
Using /tmp can cause problems when several users use OOoLilyPond on
the same machine. The temporary files are the LilyPond input file, the
LilyPond output, the eps or png file. These file stay in the temporary
directory until the next time you run OOoLilyPond. Another user
running OOoLilyPond will have problem deleting or overwriting these
files.
Such problems are easily handled by creating separate subdirectories
below /tmp/,
for example based on the user name or using tmpfile().
