13.8.6 Improved interface to temp files

The new functions hcl:open-temp-file and hcl:create-temp-file allow you to create a temporary file which is guaranteed to be new.

The undocumented function sys:make-temp-file still exists as in previous LispWorks versions, but is now deprecated. If you use it, please change to hcl:open-temp-file or hcl:create-temp-file .

The new function sys:set-temp-directory allows you to set the default directory used for temp files.
