uu_mktemp - Man Page

Create a temporary file or directory.

Synopsis

mktemp [-d|--directory] [-u|--dry-run] [-q|--quiet] [--suffix] [-p ] [--tmpdir] [-t ] [-h|--help] [-V|--version] [template]

Description

Create a temporary file or directory.

Options

-d,  --directory

Make a directory instead of a file

-u,  --dry-run

do not create anything; merely print a name (unsafe)

-q,  --quiet

Fail silently if an error occurs.

--suffix=SUFFIX

append SUFFIX to TEMPLATE; SUFFIX must not contain a path separator. This option is implied if TEMPLATE does not end with X.

-p=DIR

short form of --tmpdir

--tmpdir=DIR

interpret TEMPLATE relative to DIR; if DIR is not specified, use $TMPDIR ($TMP on windows) if set, else /tmp. With this option, TEMPLATE must not be an absolute name; unlike with -t, TEMPLATE may contain slashes, but mktemp creates only the final component

-t

Generate a template (using the supplied prefix and TMPDIR (TMP on windows) if set) to create a filename template [deprecated]

-h,  --help

Print help

-V,  --version

Print version

[template]
