Hi All, I'm using IDL+ENVI on a linux server. Due to the limitation of space on the server, if the tmp folder of ENVI gets full, other people can't run their code. And I'm not the administrator of server, so I can't empty the temp folder. So I'm wondering if there's a way to set my own tmp folder of ENVI through IDL code, something like set tmp dir to a given folder? Thank you very much.

Also, through the GUI, 'File->Preferences, click on Default Directories', you can change the Temp Directory field there. Its the same manual function on all platforms, but if you save your .cfg file, you won't need to do it again on that instance of ENVI+IDL.
