Thanks, it appears that this resides in an invisible folder. On Windows there is a preference that allows for all invisible items to show up, and on Linux they are simply annotated with I believe a period. What is the OSX way of viewing these kinds of files (besides explicitly knowing the name of the file or folder).

(this is my last OT question. I don't mean to be rude and hijack this thread but this is really bugging me and I can't seem to find an answer)

I'm new to Mac (well OSX - I used classic mac for years). Anyway where is this temp folder. I can't seem to find it.

go to folder /tmp in the finder

Or for the new OSX user,

In the Finder under Go in the MenuBar, select Go To Folder (or Shift-Command-G) and type "/tmp" (without the quotes of course). You'll see a folder named 501. Select that and you'll find the TemporaryItems folder that even you can use in Rb.
