Dear all,
as I can't find a reference to a fix, I assume the glitch is still
present ; I learned by accident, that bash utilizes tempfiles, even for
herestrings and creates them in /tmp , ignoring any $TMPDIR setting.
As a workaround for some strange application, I have to empty deleted files
in /tmp - and sometimes /tmp is really filled , the script fails if it's
needed most ....

Description:
bash ignores $TMPDIR in heredoc and herestring , rendering my "/tmp
jammed script" to fail , as soon as it is needed ...
Repeat-By:
export TMPDIR='some full or write protected dir'
echo " this should fail, case \$TMPDIR is honored"
HEREDOCUMENT_PATH=$(sed -e 's/^/ HEREDOC temp=/g' <<<$TMPDIR)
echo -e "calculating $HEREDOCUMENT_PATH requires temporary file(s) ,
as it is processed as a herestring / heredoc operation \n
if TMPDIR $TMPDIR is honored, this should fail , else it uses /tmp
what simply is wrong \n
mktemp shows what should happen:"
echo " proof with mktemp, which honors the variable"
bash <<EOSCRIPT
mktemp
touch 1
EOSCRIPT
