Title:
  0.10.2 Temp files not cleared up

Status in Sikuli:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  version: 0.10.2

  OS: WinXP 32-bit

  Description:
  Each time Sikuli IDE runs a script from the IDE, it will create some temporary files on the temp folder. 

  The files created are some thumbnails and the a temp python file,
  which is identical to the python file stored in *.sikuli.

  The temp python file is only created when Sikuli runs the script,
  while the thumbnails are created when the IDE loads the script.

  The thumbnails are removed upon Sikuli's exit, but the temp python
  file is left on the temp folder.

  If left unchecked, these temp python files will occupy a lot of space.

  This problem is also observed when running an SKL file. It is
  understood that SKL file is a zip file with all the images and python
  file stored, and Sikuli needs to unzip it before use. However, the
  temporary unzipped file is left intact when Sikuli exits or finishes
  the scripted actions. Again, if left unchecked, it will bloat the
  machine with temporary files.

  Perhaps Sikuli can clean up these temp files upon exits?
