printf'ing in /tmp was an idea given to him. My tool does not printf it out in /tmp. you wouldn't de-compile it in 5 minutes, One could easily make another script to tarball whole /tmp after every 2 seconds and will eventually get the script in tarball *if* his script/program printf's it out in /tmp like i suggested him to get the things done temporarily or for free untill such opensource tool is around.
