71 Create a temporary file or directory, safely, and print its name.\n\
72 TEMPLATE must contain at least 3 consecutive `X's in last component.\n\
73 If TEMPLATE is not specified, use tmp.XXXXXXXXXX, and --tmpdir is implied.\n\
77 -d, --directory create a directory, not a file\n\
78 -u, --dry-run do not create anything; merely print a name (unsafe)\n\
79 -q, --quiet suppress diagnostics about file/dir-creation failure\n\
82 --suffix=SUFF append SUFF to TEMPLATE. SUFF must not contain slash.\n\
83 This option is implied if TEMPLATE does not end in X.\n\
86 --tmpdir[=DIR] interpret TEMPLATE relative to DIR. If DIR is not\n\
87 specified, use $TMPDIR if set, else /tmp. With\n\
88 this option, TEMPLATE must not be an absolute name.\n\
89 Unlike with -t, TEMPLATE may contain slashes, but\n\
90 mktemp creates only the final component\n\
94 -p DIR use DIR as a prefix; implies -t [deprecated]\n\
95 -t interpret TEMPLATE as a single file name component,\n\
96 relative to a directory: $TMPDIR, if set; else the\n\
97 directory specified via -p; else /tmp [deprecated]\n\
