Subject: ANNOUNCE: Release 3 of the DJGPP port of mktemp 1.7 uploaded (DJGPP
2.05 only).
Reply-To: djgpp AT delorie DOT com

This is a port of mktemp 1.7 to MSDOS/DJGPP.


   mktemp is a simple utility designed to make temporary file handling
   in shells scripts be safe and simple.  It is compatible with the one
   that comes with coreutils.  Because a port of GNU coreutils is not
   available but certain test suites require a mktemp program to create
   their temporary output files this tool has been ported.



   DJGPP specific changes.
   =======================


   - There are no DJGPP specific user visible changes.

   - This is the first port that has been compiled using djdev205.  Starting
     with this port version I will no longer support neither djdev204 nor djdev203.

   - The port has been tested by using it.  I have used them only on WinXP.
     It has worked flawlessly.  I do not kwon if this will ever be the case on
     FreeDOS.  I have never used/tested them in that environment.

   - The port has been configured and compiled on WinXP SP3.  There is no
     guarantee that this may be possible with any other DOS-like OS.  Due
     to the use of long file names it will not be possible to configure
     and compile without LFN support.  The port has been compiled using
     gcc510 and bnu225br2.

   As usual, all djgpp specific files (diffs, README files, etc.) are stored in
   the /djgpp directory.  The sources have been configured to be build in the
   /_build.205 directory.  If for some reason it does not work for you, delete
   it contents and configure from scratch again.

   For further information about mktemp please read the info docs and NEWS file.




   The port consists of the usual two packages produced using djdev205
   that can be downloaded from ftp.delorie.com and mirrors as (time stamp 2015-08-01):

     Mktemp 1.7 binary and man format documentation:

     Mktemp 1.7 source:

   Send mktemp specific bug reports to <http://www.mktemp.org/bugs/>.
   Send suggestions and bug reports concerning the DJGPP port
   to comp.os.msdos.djgpp or <djgpp AT delorie DOT com>.
   If you are not sure if the failure is really a mktemp failure
   or a djgpp specific failure, report it here and *not* to
   <http://www.mktemp.org/bugs/>.  The author is not aware of
   what I have done.

Enjoy.

       Guerrero, Juan Manuel <juan DOT guerrero AT gmx DOT de>
