+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+.BR mkdtemp ()
+function generates a uniquely named temporary
+directory from \fItemplate\fP.
+The last six characters of \fItemplate\fP
+must be XXXXXX and these are replaced with a string that makes the
+directory name unique.
+The directory is then created with
+permissions 0700.
+Since it will be modified,
+.I template
+must not be a string constant, but should be declared as a character array.
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+The
+.BR mkdtemp ()
+function returns a pointer to the modified template
+string on success, and NULL on failure, in which case
+.I errno
+is set to indicate the error.
+.SH ERRORS
+.TP
+.B EINVAL
+The last six characters of \fItemplate\fP were not XXXXXX.
+Now \fItemplate\fP is unchanged.
+.PP
+Also see
+.BR mkdir (2)
+for other possible values for \fIerrno\fP.
