I'm a bit puzzled by many TMP font files in my /home/user directory. These are
hidden files, and appear to be empty, or almost empty. For example, there is
one file named .fonts.cache-1. This contains 26.8KB of data. Next I
have .fonts.cache-1.TMP-0mWg8b, which contains 6B, and inside the file is a
number (17031). The next file is .fonts.cache-1.TMP-3wah8b, and contains 0B.
There are 28 of these TMP files on one of my FC2 installs. the only other
fonts file after all the temp ones, is one named .fonts.conf (110B).
Anyone know why these empty TMP files arn't being deleted when logging out or
shutting down the machine?

I think its to help load times, obviously increase the performance of apps like The Gimp. Even if you delete these files Im preety sure their replaced as soon as you open certain applications that use them.
