i would like to point out that the primary reason any of this nonsense exists is because of short filename restrictions. i've replaces nearly all of my temp file creation code in all of my project to `return os.urandom(32).hex()` ... which is reliable secure, fast, and doesn't require any fileops sure, it doesn't work on 8.3 limited systems, but maybe the NamedTemp code should check that *first*.... and *if* it's OK to use long names... just use them, otherwise revert to existing behavior ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue22107> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
