[Therion] Cleaning up folders and temp files

Thanks Rowena

A command like this worked for the temp pdfs that I don't need.
`system "del sometempfile.pdf"`

How about the therion.log and .xtherion.dat files?
They seem to be created after the last line in thconfig is executed so they
can't be deleted with "system ..."
One solution that comes to mind is to create a batch file that waits for a
couple of seconds and then deletes those two files after therion has
finished with them. There is probably a cleaner solution though.

Which raises the next question
I tried the batch file approach with this command
`system "start removefiles.bat"`
The file removefiles.bat sleeps for 5 seconds and then tries to delete
therion.log. The thing is that I might be using `system start...`
incorrectly because Therion still waits for it to finish.

Hi Vladmir,
You can put commands in your thconfig file to delete the unwanted files
after the "export" command.
Therion Book, page 46:
âsystemâAllows to execute system commands during therion compilation.
53 Normally Therionwaits until the subprocess is finished. If you want to
continue compilation without break,use background:rgb(228,228,228);">From:

After I compile a project I end up with several files that I don't need
like:
.xtherion.dat - don't know what it is
therion.log
and a couple of temp PDFs that I compile and then merge into a final PDF
that contains both plan and elevation

Is there a way to delete all of those or at least prevent therion from
generating them? I don't really look at the therion.log file.

In the examples I see commands like:
#!CLEAN rabbit.lox rabbit-plan.pdf rabbit-xelev.pdf
but it doesn't seem to do anything and uncommenting it causes an error.
