many programs obey the TMP and/or TMPDIR variables..

mkdir ~/tmp
export TMP=~/tmp
export TMPDIR=~/tmpdir

not all though.

looks like imagemagick supports the TMPDIR variable according to the FAQ

   Never mind, figured it out...setting $ENV{TMPDIR} works.

Temp /tmp space...

[Ashley M. Kirchner]

   I'm running into a problem with my /tmp during a large ImageMagick 
mpeg 'convert' - it's running out of space.  /tmp has 2 Gb allocated to 
it and the process quits after hitting 2 Gb.  Is there some way I can 
have the process use some other location for temp space, instead of /tmp 
?  (the command line is simply 'convert -delay 10 *.jpg file.mpg' which 
creates a temp file for each frame)
