I'm trying to debug some issues with Asymptote on both codespaces and Windows. 

My understanding was that the '-v debug' switch would preserve temporary directories. 

But when I run
'pretext -v debug generate -f asymptote -t apex-pdf'
it runs until I hit an error, and then announces that it is removing temporary directories! 

I need to preserve one of the generated .asy files so I can see what errors I'm getting when I run asymptote directly. 

I think codespaces is running CLI 2.42 and on Windows I had 2.43

There is a new option --save-tmp-dirs
