SH DESCRIPTION
I Mktemp
replaces

by a unique file name, and returns the
address of the template.
The template should look like a file name with eleven trailing
LR X s.
The
LR X s
are replaced by a letter followed by the current process id.
Letters from
L a
to
L z
are tried until a name that can be accessed
(see

is generated.
If no such name can be generated,
I mktemp
returns
\f5"/"\f1 .
