Some files called Ex##### and Rx##### have appeared in /var/tmp. They are quite big and I don't know what they are and why they have appeared. How could I guess it ?
Thank you very much,
Regards.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Solution/var/tmp/Exnnnnn Editor temporary file
/var/tmp/Rxnnnnn Named buffer temporary file
from man ex,vi :
Remarks
The program names ex, edit, vi, view, and vedit are separate
personalities of the same program. This manual entry describes the
behavior of the ex/edit personality. On many HP-UX and other similar
systems, e is a synonym for ex.
