-# The class for temporary files.
-# o creates a temporary file, which name is "basename.pid.n" with mode "w+".
-# o Tempfile objects can be used like IO object.
-# o the temporary directory is determined by ENV['TMPDIR'], ENV['TMP'],
-# ENV['TEMP'] and /tmp, in the order named.
-# o when $SAFE > 0, you should specify a directory via the second argument
+# This is a class for managing temporary files.
+#
+# o Tempfile::new("basename") creates a temporary file whose name is
+# "basename.pid.n" and opens with mode "w+".
+# o A Tempfile object can be treated as an IO object.
+# o The temporary directory is determined by ENV['TMPDIR'],
+# ENV['TMP'], and ENV['TEMP'] in the order named, and if none of
+# them is available, it is set to /tmp.
+# o When $SAFE > 0, you should specify a directory via the second argument
# of Tempfile::new(), or it will end up finding an ENV value tainted and
# pick /tmp. In case you don't have it, an exception will be raised.
-# o tempfile.close(true) gets the temporary file removed immediately.
-# o otherwise, the removal is delayed until the object is finalized.
-# o with Tempfile#open, you can reopen the temporary file.
-# o file mode of the temporary files is 0600.
-# o this library is (considered to be) thread safe.
