Try: let $CREAM_SWP = "C:/TEMP" Does that help? > Even more strange is that in C:\Temp I have 322 files from cream for > example: > > html.pm.~ > Condition.pm.~ > Trigger.pm.~ > > Is cream now creating two swap files? Or are these files which end with > a '~' sign something else, maybe backups? Correct, these are backup files. (Usually, swap files have the extension ".swp".) You can force backup file locations with: let $CREAM_BAK = "C:/TEMP" > If so why does cream make a backup and a swap file? They do two different things. Swap files are a way of managing changes and differences in a file in memory and disk. Backup files are a way of managing the current and an older version of the entire file.
