Hi Andreas,

Would you be able to add a function that would return a string with the full path of the currently active directory?

Thanks,

Hi Andreas,

Would you be able to add a function that would return a string with the full path of the currently active directory?

Hollywood 3.0 has a command which can do that for you. GetFileAttributes() can be used to query things like file dates, comments, flags, full paths.

To get the full path of the working directory, one would use:

Code: Select all

r = GetFileAttributes("")   ; an empty string denotes current working directory
Print(r.path)   ; print full path

Sounds great!

(Looking forward to using 3.0.)
