Somenow I've overlooked that my /tmp file has been filling up with large
files for over a year.
May I ask what is a reasonable way to handle the /tmp directory, without
deleting large files that are maybe only a few days old?
Thank you for any ideas,
Alan

This can be done easily as shown:
*find /tmp/ -mtime +1 -exec rm {} \;
Change +1 to the number of days old you want the files to be before deletion

How often do you reboot? If you don't measure uptimes by the seasons,
setting WIPE_TMP=yes
