Windows Environment Variables
|
Hello,
I am trying to set up logging in a somewhat fancy way. Here is the command I am trying to use:
| Code: |
| #LOG %concat("%USERPROFILE%\My Documents\CMUD\", %exec(#CHAR), "\Logs\",%time(yyyy.mm.dd),".txt") |
The problem seems to be with the %USERPROFILE% Windows environment variable. Does anyone know a way to do this? |

As far s I'm aware, you can't us dyanamic directories like this. However, CMUD's data directory's automatically created in My Documents\My Games and you can move it into My Documents itself easily enough if you like. If you don't specify a drive, that's where the logs are created.
Also, you should use %ch instead of %exec(#ch). |

Yeah, CMUD doesn't expand Windows environment variables, although that's a good suggestion for a future CMUD function call.

#var Shell %comcreate("WScript.Shell")
#echo @Shell.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%USERPROFILE%") |
