Many thanks, Kovid

I can see environment variables for storing configuration files and metadata.db, but not for specifying a directory where calibre saves temp files - those named "calibre_0.7.35_tmp__xxxxx".


Quote:
•CALIBRE_CONFIG_DIRECTORY - sets the directory where configuration files are stored/read.
•CALIBRE_OVERRIDE_DATABASE_PATH - allows you to specify the full path to metadata.db. Using this variable you can have metadata.db be in a location other than the library folder. Useful if your library folder is on a networked drive that does not support file locking.
•CALIBRE_DEVELOP_FROM - Used to run from a calibre development environment. See Setting up a calibre development environment.
•CALIBRE_OVERRIDE_LANG - Used to force the language used by the interface (ISO 639 language code)
•CALIBRE_DISABLE_UDISKS - Used to disable the use of udisks for mounting/ejecting. Set it to 1 to use calibre-mount-helper instead.
•SYSFS_PATH - Use if sysfs is mounted somewhere other than /sys
•http_proxy - Used on linux to specify an HTTP proxy
Maybe I am not looking at the right place?
