NAME

       al_make_temp_file - Allegro 5 API

SYNOPSIS

              #include <allegro5/allegro.h>

              ALLEGRO_FILE *al_make_temp_file(const char *template, ALLEGRO_PATH **ret_path)

DESCRIPTION

       Make a temporary randomly named file given a filename `template'.

       `template'  is a string giving the format of the generated filename and should include one
       or more capital Xs.  The Xs are replaced with  random  alphanumeric  characters,  produced
       using a simple pseudo-random number generator only.  There should be no path separators.

       If  `ret_path'  is  not  NULL, the address it points to will be set to point to a new path
       structure with the name of the temporary file.

       Returns the opened ALLEGRO_FILE(3alleg5) on success, NULL on failure.
