### Create a random temporary directory / file
Using `mktemp`, a randomly named file or directory will be created in `/tmp`
Create a file:
[shuser]
```sh
mktemp
```
[/shuser]
Create a directory:
[shuser]
```sh
mktemp -d
```
[/shuser]
Save the output into an environment variable for future referencing
sh / Bash:
[shuser]
```sh
export TMPDIR=$(mktemp -d)
```
[/shuser]
Fish:
[shuser]
```fish
set TMPDIR (mktemp -d)
```
[/shuser]
