Yep - that fixes it. Both TEMP and TMP were set, but not TMPDIR.

How do I make that alteration a permanent fixture, so that I don't have to 
do it every time I open a new shell ? I tried editing etc/profile (in 
wordpad), but only succeeded in stuffing up the line endings - and had to 
replace that file with a copy of the backup from etc/defaults/etc/profile.

Thanks Andrew.

Cheers,
Rob
