This function operates exactly as \function{TemporaryFile} does,
except that the file is guaranteed to have a visible name in the file
! system. That name can be retrieved from the \member{name} member of
! the file object.

--- 60,68 ----
This function operates exactly as \function{TemporaryFile} does,
except that the file is guaranteed to have a visible name in the file
! system (on \UNIX, the directory entry is not unlinked). That name can
! be retrieved from the \member{name} member of the file object. Whether
! the name can be used to open the file a second time, while the
! named temporary file is still open, varies across platforms (it can
! be so used on \UNIX; it cannot on Windows NT or later).
