I think we are miscommunication. What I wanted to say is that `current-time' is good enough if we export to local file. The whole route with creating temporary file and getting its attributes is only needed in remote directory. > IR> You could guard the logic behind `file-remote-p'. > > FMU file-remote-p works onnly when there is a handler on path for > operation file-remote-p, which is not true in the general > case. Otherwise that function returns nil. If file-remote-p does not work, I doubt that we can export to that directory at all. > OTOH it is possible to reserve the creation of a temporary file only > when the file is not already present.
