i don't really care for the utility of -p but it seems to be working as
advertised
try something like: mktemp myprefix "$PWD" or mktemp "" "$PWD"
mktemp --?p
-p, --default=directory
Use directory if the TMPDIR environment variable is not
defined. Implies --tmp.
gnu man mktemp
-p DIR use DIR as a prefix; implies -t [deprecated]
-t interpret TEMPLATE as a single file name component, relative
to a directory: $TMPDIR, if set; else the
directory specified via -p; else /tmp [deprecated]
