43  * temporary file name that can be used as a temporary file within the
44  * module. Successive calls to G_tempfile() will generate new
45  * names. Only the file name is generated. The file itself is not
46  * created. To create the file, the module must use standard UNIX
47  * functions which create and open files, e.g., <i>creat()</i> or
48  * <i>fopen()</i>.
49  *
50  * Successive calls will generate different names the names are of the
51  * form pid.n where pid is the programs process id number and n is a
52  * unique identifier.
53  *
54  * <b>Note:</b> It is recommended to <i>unlink()</i> (remove) the
55  * temp file on exit/error. Only if GRASS is left with 'exit', the GIS
56  * mapset management will clean up the temp directory (ETC/clean_temp).
