Hi, if I run this program from command line in Linux, I allways get the same result,

How can I get different file names?
By actually creating the file. GetTempFileName does not create a file, but
does check whether the filename exists.
What is the use of that? Between the check and creating the file, some other
process may already have created it.
That might be the reason why Windows is creating the file for you if you
call GetTempFileName... so GetTempFileName in FPC does not expose the
same behavior on non-Windows and Windows.
