I cd'd to the tmp directory, noticed that all files started tmp..., and did rm tmp* which has freed more than 2GB. Happy. This 'should' happen automatically or manually more easily in Pythonista. My guess is we're all wasting space; I was just wasting a lot due to all the image processing. I hope one day an update will add this, and maybe even add numpy :-)

Application size
I've been processing some pictures using PIL and now see that Pythonista takes 2.7 GB on my iPad. How can I recover this space without deleting the application and scripts, please.

RE: Application size
Alongside Pythonista.app, there is a tmp directory, which I suspect contains all the unwanted files. I wonder if there's a safe way to delete these, rm . (if shellista is capable). Would it let me delete files not associated with Pythonista, accidentally?

RE: Application size
Thank you very much Peter. Looking at Documents, the default directory with Shellista, I see all my .py scripts, an Images directory (which is empty). I tried looking around above there (Library, and the directory for Pythonista itself), but noticed nothing taking up the space. Do you have any additional pointers, please?
