I find the description just a little confusing: PREFIX is a prefix for the *base name* of the temporary directory. It actually goes in the middle of the directory name. I like the concept otherwise. I can probably drop some code from GNU PSPP if this is installed. (PSPP also uses temporary files for sorting.) -- "Implementation details are beyond the scope of the Java virtual machine specification.
