There could be more process that that create these, but if I do something like:
ls -l *
r | more
I will see a /tmp/sh??????? created that has "ls -l *" in it.
Basically if I issue any command and then do
r | more
I will see the last command I entered.
I have always just assumed that the "/tmp/sh???????" files were temporary files
created when doing certain shell commands/processes.
