MKTEMP(S)                XENIX System V                 MKTEMP(S)



     Name
          mktemp - Makes a unique filename.

     Syntax
          char *mktemp(template)
          char *template;

     Description
          mktemp replaces template with a unique filename and returns
          the address of template.  The template should look like a
          filename with six trailing X's, which will be replaced with
          the current process ID preceded by a letter.  The letter
          will be chosen so that the resulting name does not duplicate
          an existing file.

     Notes
          It is possible to run out of letters.
