  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

--- 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).
