Generate a random filename in unix shell

Question

I would like to generate a random filename in unix shell (say tcshell). The filename should consist of random 32 hex letters, e.g.:

c7fdfc8f409c548a10a0a89a7         


        

Answer 1

Another thing you can add is running the date command as follows:

date +%S%N

Reads nonosecond time and the result adds a lot of randomness.
