On win32 it will usually (but not always) provide a file name in a directory writeable only by the current user.

OS X 10.5 also does this.

import tempfile tempfile.mktemp() '/var/folders/Ru/RuapMUan2RWWJ++1YwBnRU++0T6/-Tmp-/tmpjjkKha' os.system("ls -dl /var/folders/Ru/RuapMUan2RWWJ++1YwBnRU++0T6/-Tmp-") drwx------ 2 wjanssen 100 68 May 7 08:34 /var/folders/Ru/RuapMUan2RWWJ++1YwBnRU++0T6/-Tmp- 0
