Re: LilyPond 2.23.6 *-tmp-* files

[Andrew Bernard]

Presumably you want all except the tmp file. Normally these go in /tmp. Why yours do not I do not know. But you can force that with setting the environment variable TMPDIR=/tmp in your shell of preceding the LilyPond command.

Frescobaldi has an option to delete them but I suspect  that is Python code not a LilyPond switch.

Also uou could write a simple shell wrapper that just does rm on the tmp pattern after running LilYpond.
