What is the reason that the system specific files (sys-unix.c et.al.) all define a specific name for building tmpfile? In main/devPS.c then there is an #ifdef sequence which calls depending on the system defined the respective function. Wouldn't it be better just to have one function R_tmpnam(), which is implemented system dependent in the sys-<system>.c files? -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- r-devel mailing list -- Read http://www.ci.tuwien.ac.at/~hornik/R/R-FAQ.html Send "info", "help", or "[un]subscrib...
