It may not write the images, but it certainly creates a boatload of Temp
files when it starts up (it doesn't seem to create more when it compiles).

I'm running the PPC IDE version and I cleaned out the directory last night,
double clicked a project of mine and that folder is no longer empty:

Temp-10258      Temp-24863      Temp-7515       Temp17287       Temp26778
Temp-10452      Temp-24911      Temp-762        Temp17532       Temp27291...

I skipped the rest, there are 232 files in there now. And I use plug ins,
Einhugur and MBS. So long as the temp files were re-used, removed or didn't
grow anymore it would be fine. That doesn't seem to be the case.

I'm thinking that RS overlooked this to illustrate a perfect example of
programming. As in, it's a perfect example of "how not to"...:-) Must be a
sloppy coding award someplace they're after...;-)
