Cross-platform tmpfs / %TEMP% BaseDir #71

Open cryptoquick opened 2 years ago

It would be useful to have a cross-platform way to get the tmp directory. On Mac and Linux, this should return the /tmp directory, on Windows it's held within the TEMP environment variable.

This should respect the $TMPDIR environment variable on POSIX systems.
