Neat, finally a question simple enough for me to anwser and as a reward I
get to learn some neat thing too! Never used it before, so some reading up
to do (Oh how I love Debina GNU/Linux with all its docs:)...
nice nice seems safe, but...
Bypasses umask alltogether, and assumes TMPDIR is unset,
so nitpickingly we could do with:
$ tar cz ~user | ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] \
'unset TMPDIR && cat >$(tempfile -d ~/ -p out. -s .tgz)'
