Can we clarify what is "easy way to delete a temporary
ijs file"? One easy way to just delete any temp files
is to use a file explorer (or finder) to open the
temp folder, select and delete the files.
This gives much more control and would prevent
destructive action of misunderstanding of whatever
J menu behavior would be.
As shown in gui/jobs addon, the file explorer can
be launched as easy as
require '~system\extras\util\browser.ijs'
launch_jbrowser_ jpath'~temp'
Also, from my experience in j601, if open any
file in ~temp and then close it, there will be
a prompt to delete it.
