Re: os.tmpname()

[Frederico Rodrigues Abraham <devotion97@...>]

   well i solved it using tmpname(NULL,NULL)... it considers the
temporary directory of the system.
   when i use tmpnam() on windows on a non-writable root, the filename
generated (\something) is not writable...
   i guess it's an implementation bug
   thanks anyway
