Dear listers,
Is there a built-in macro that register the name of the DO file that
is currently running? I wish to use it to print the file name to the
session log, so that when I looked at the log next time, I'll know
which DO file was used to generate the results.
That is, what I need is something like the (bogus) $FileName macro in
the following example, which should take the value of "example.do"
(with or without file path). Thus, when I open mylog.txt months
later, I'll know it is the result of running example.do.
====== example.do ==========
capture log close
log using mylog.txt
di "$FileName"
.......
============================
Forgive my ignorance if the question has been asked before -- I
searched but couldn't find the answer.
Thanks in advance,
Eddy
