 SET TMP
 Specifies the location for creating temporary files
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    SET TMP=<pathName>

 Arguments

    <pathName> is the name of the directory where temporary files are
    created.

 Description

    The TMP environment variable specifies a single directory where both
    CLIPPER.EXE and BLINKER.EXE write temporary work files.  If this variable
    is not specified, temporary files are created in the current directory.
    The /T compiler option can be used to override the TMP setting for the
    current compiler session.

    In the process of some operations, such as sorting and indexing,
    CA-Clipper creates temporary files.  These files are created either in
    the current directory or in the directory specified by the environment
    variable TMP.

 Examples

    To assign a TMP variable, place a command line like the following in
    the user's AUTOEXEC.BAT file:

    SET TMP=D:\TEMP
