ET doesn't cleanup temporary files properly

Open ojab opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

$ find /tmp/ -maxdepth 1 -name 'et*' | wc -l
131

each new et connection creates two additional files (et_forward_sock_* directory & etterminal-*.log) that are not cleaned up on exit/disconnect. Not a big deal, but makes harder to find something in /tmp. Maybe just put everything into $TMPDIR/etserver/ instead of plain $TMPDIR/?

Great point, it wouldn't be hard to scan /tmp for old et files and clean them up.

I wish there was some way to put a bounty on issues so someone with time could be motivated to build that.
