Edit Several Files at Once
Qedit's primary scratch file is called "Qeditscr." By default, this file is created in /var/tmp (/usr/tmp is the default on older versions of HP-UX) or the path name specified in the TMPDIR environment variable. The scratchfile name is qscr.xxxxxxxxx where "xxxxxxxxx" is a random string generated by the HP-UX tempnam routine.
If you want to move scratch files to a different directory, you can set the TMPDIR environment variable.
TMPDIR=/home/user1/tmp
export TMPDIRKeep in mind that Qedit works with absolute filenames and these names can not have more than 240 characters. Whenever you use the default options for Opening or Texting a file, your work will be in the Qeditscr scratch file.
