Re[2]: Why so many undeleted bat-tmp files in the temp-directory?
Hello Dierk, On Thursday, April 12, 2001 at 09:33:24GMT +0200 (which was 09:33 AM where I live) you wrote: I wouldn't call it a bug DH I would, simply because I think every programme should, when you exit DH it normally, delete its temp files. I agree, this is definitely a bug since no other program leaves so many .tmp files back in the TEMP dir in Windows and I don't see a reason why TB! shouldn't delete them ... after all they are supposed to be temporary... But TB! is still the best e-mail client I've ever used! :-) (I just hope there's gonna be a mac version of it soon!!!) -- Best regards, Andr Engelhardt /--\ |Eternal Tedium Sound Media Design | |http://www.eternaltedium.com | |[EMAIL PROTECTED] | |Mobile: +49 162 751 8530 (sms capable)| |PGP Key ID: 0x927EF264| \--/ -- __ Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] You are subscribed as : archive@jab.org

As said, 0-byte files take up directory entries, but no FAT entries. Actually, I think what takes so long when deleting hundreds (I did 653 from \windows\temp because of TB!) or thousands (I did 32,000 + from \windows\inf the other day because of WinME automatic updates) is if you are doing it in a way that the files are sent to the recycle bin. Once you get away from that, it goes much faster. -- Dwight A.

That, plus many other anomalies have convinced me to leave Beta 3 and 4 alone until they resolve all the problems people are having.

ML FWIW, I use beta 4 and there's no temp files in my temp dir, even ML though my Bat has been up for many hours. I just realized a couple of days ago that one of these .tmp files are left behind in my Windows\Temp directory (Win 98SE) everytime I open a message in TB! So, as a temporary fix I put a little dittie in my autoexec.bat to clean out all .tmp files from that directory upon startup. I realize that we *shouldn't* have to do that, but hopefully RitLabs will straighten this out soon... - - - - Regards, Ron Secord Using The Bat! v1.52 Beta/4 Under Windows 98 SE 4.10.
