sandbox

Each user gets a working area on each node of the cluster. This area is called sandbox. The default location on a local machine is $HOME/.proof (on PROOF-Lite $HOME/.proof/path-from-where-we-started). However, on eal clusters the administrator decides where the user sandboxes will be created. You can find out the location of the sandbox with Print().
