 The use of DECUS SPELL within EVE posted some time ago has a minor bug.
 If a new file is specified for the buffer then
 get_info(current_buffer,"file_name") returns 0 and a file extension of .tmp
 is used.
  I believe the second parameter should be "output_file" as below.

! Make filename point to SYS$SCRATCH directory, with the integer pid number as
! the filename and the same extension.  If no extension is present, use .tmp

the_file := "sys$scratch:" +	
	str (get_info (eve$$x_spell_process, "pid")) +
	file_parse(get_info(current_buffer,"output_file"),"*.tmp","",type);
