FileCreateTemp ( prefix )
(s) prefix specifies a prefix for the file name, up to 3 characters long (the string may be longer than that, but only the first 3 characters are used).

This function creates a 0-byte file with a unique name, in the directory designated for temporary files (as specified by the "TMP" or "TEMP" environment variable).
The temporary file name will have the form:
preXXXX.tmp
Where "pre" is the prefix specified by the user, and "XXXX" is a 4-character hexadecimal string generated to guarantee a unique file name. The file name will have an extension of ".tmp".
Note: This file will not be automatically deleted by the system. See the function FileDelete to delete this file.
tempfile = FileCreateTemp("TMP")
filehandle = FileOpen(tempfile,"WRITE")
FileWrite(filehandle,"Temporary stuff")
FileClose(filehandle)
Message(tempfile,"Temp file created")
FileDelete(tempfile)
Message(tempfile,"Temp file deleted")
