change location of temporary files
Does setting the environment variable TMPDIR, before starting R,
to a directory on a bigger file system help? On Linux I get
% mkdir /tmp/RTMP-BILL
% env TMPDIR=/tmp/RTMP-BILL R --quiet --vanilla
> tempdir()
[1] "/tmp/RTMP-BILL/Rtmppgowz4"
> tempfile()
[1] "/tmp/RTMP-BILL/Rtmppgowz4/file7ce36ec5cb1e"
I don't know if there is an R-specific environment variable or startup
flag for this.

change location of temporary files
I would like to change where R stores the temporary files to my external
hard drive in my iMac. This is important because the temporary files R
creates are huge and I do not have enough available space in my internal
HD. Again, this is for macOS.
This change has to be temporary. Later I need to use the usual location for
temp files in the internal HD.
Thanks in advance,
Kumar Mainali
