Is there a way you can determine the name of the file the script is saved as? Kinda like ScriptPath determines the file path, but I need the actual name of the file.

get the script path then delete everything but the name.

ScriptPath only returns the path. It does not include the file name.

Have a const of file name.

I'm trying to make something where the user can click a button on the form and auto-update the script. However, what they have the file saved under won't necessarily coorespond with what I want the name to be and what I put in the const. I could make my const = 'awesome script.scar', but that doesn't stop them from saving it as "omgh4x0rz shitty chopper.scar"


Yea?

Edit: I was just looking somewhere and someone used this

TheFileNumber := ReWriteFile(ScriptPath + [B]ScriptName[/B], false);

It was from Sumilions something and was on an application.

in divi, there is a function called something like ListFiles(dir,extention:string):array of string;
which return an array of the files in a directory with an extention,
so choose extention 'scar' and for every file you get, open it and read the first few lines, in your script put something like,
program MyScript; //MyScript by SomeGuy

then when you're reading, if it has that, it means its your script and thats the file name

Ah thank you very much yakman! I guess that is a reason for me to download divi now.
