Re^3: pp --clean does not seem to work (it does)

I just tried both a die() and a divide by zero in my test script and both times the contents of Temp\par-123... were cleared out. I'm testing on Windows. How are you killing the process?

How are you killing the process? On unix systems, `kill -9` (i.e. sending `SIGKILL`) can not be caught, the process is terminated without a chance to save any data or to clean up. See also signal(7) and POSIX. Alexander -- Today I will gladly share my knowledge and experience, for there are no sweeter words than "I told you so". ;-)	[reply] [d/l] [select]
