Is there a Common Lisp function or typical way for creating a temporary file name or file?
Update since a few years have passed. There are two systems that can open a temporary file not previously mentioned, cl-fad and UIOP. They are both in quicklisp, and UIOP is part of ASDF3, which comes with most CL implementations now.
There is no function for that in common lisp. Allegro has make-temp-file-name, Emacs has make-temp-file, clisp has mkstemp.
