node-gettemporaryfilepath
=========================
Generate file names for temporary files:
```javascript
var getTemporaryFilePath = require('gettemporaryfilepath');
getTemporaryFilePath(); // "/tmp/112116-2662-18u8bl8"
getTemporaryFilePath(); // "/tmp/112116-2662-1inp07r"
```
Creating and cleaning up the temporary files is your own
responsibility.
Custom suffixes and prefixes are supported using the same syntax as <a
href="https://github.com/bruce/node-temp#affixes">node-temp</a> (from
which most of the code was taken):
```javascript
getTemporaryFilePath({suffix: '.png'}); // "/tmp/112116-2662-125a83d.png"
getTemporaryFilePath({prefix: 'foo-'}); // "/tmp/foo-112116-2662-avhu28"
```
