Go for it :) I suggest "$ENV{APPDATA}/Local/pp" and maybe we may omit the
per-user sub directory
in this case (as %APPDATA% should already be per-user). Maybe drop the ancient
fallback to C:\TEMP
(and the really weird %WinDir%\temp) as well.
Keep in mind that par_mktmpdir in myldr/mktmpdir.c has a perl-level sibling
_set_par_temp in script/par.pl.
Cheers, Roderich
