in thread Unique filehandle -- what is correct?

If you want to follow this way (I would recommend File::Temp like Perlbotics did), I would say you about using timestamp inside the name of temp file, for example:

TEMPFILE.20111211133200.rand()

Or even using microseconds precission

But, definitively use File::Temp ;-)
