Current File Path

Post by CNCDaveToo »

My gadget can read the currently open .crv file name via

Code: Select all

job = VectricJob()
job.Name

-- what I'd _really_ like is the full path to the open file so that I can write a text file into that directory and write out a bit of related text based on my gadget's action.
Be kind.

f_Dir = pp.TP_DIR:GetString() .. "\\"

there is much info you can get, lool into this file, However DO NOT change any of it, under the Pain of DEATH.

C:\Program Files\Aspire 10.0\Lua\ppVariables.lua
