      Analyses like NBSR and Temporary Housing create sets of text files that the models use inside a temp folder; however, on systems like Linux, the /tmp folder is cleaned with each reboot so the temp files become useless afterwards. The problem ends up being that if we don't delete these files after running the analysis, the lifecycle of these files are out of the control of MAEviz. In the case of temp housing, users might want to run the optimization (second half of the analysis) multiple times, changing weights of metrics, etc...so temp housing leaves the temp files around (until the system cleans out /tmp). It would be nice if we had a text file dataset that handled these files so we can move them under our repository and have more control over the lifecycle.
