I don't understand this behavior at all.
I have a script that has an  'enscript' command in it.
I also have several text files saving things like $0, $1 for testing
purposes.  These text files are saved to /tmp

so far ok

but now i find that even after deleting those /tmp files
if i even run another  enscript command,
(without any saving of files to /tmp)
then those previously deleted files in /tmp reappear!
ls -l shows them to have a new time stamp
but the text data therein is clearly the old stuff.

Is /tmp a bad place to store stuff?
How can I permanently get rid of such files?
and/or avoid doing this trick again?

thanks for any clues/ guidelines
Jack
