In Perl 5.8 perldoc -f open tells me:
Is there a way to open files in memory in Perl 5.6.1. ? A lot of our test code does kludgy stuff like write test files to /tmp On related note is there a good module or technique for Perl 5.8 that allows a RAM based dir ? I have a script that tars a bunch of files. It would be nice to put them in a directory before tarring them and the end user doesn't want to create temporary files. I've taken a quick look through CPAN but nothing jumped out at me. Please feel free to point out something I've overlooked update: By "RAM based file system" I mean soemthing like: "not on physical disc", something that nothing but root with a debugger and my program can access.
