[Suggestion] Save temp do file in /tmp/ and do not delete it afterwards

[avila]

issue

Currently the do-file is saved in the current working folder and quickly deleted after running.

Suggestion

• Save the file in a temporary folder (/tmp/) and do not delete afterwards.
• The temp file might be overwritten when a new section is send to stata or a filename with a random number could be generated every time.

Reasoning

1) Quite often I run a section of a file or a whole file and find out that, for example, I have another dataset in memory other than the intended one or a variable was already defined. I got used to read the right dataset (or drop the already defined variable) and re-run the temp do-file.

2) I believe this is the default behaviour in Windows but I don't remember for sure.

I agree it sounds better this way. I'll work to implement it soon.
