change save to disk directory

[guttface]

hey. i'm making a game which saves high scores to a file using

code:

open : streamNumber,filename, put

how do i control where the file gets created?

for the file name u can put in a dir as well like:

"C:\\compscifiles\\dan\\myfile.ai"

note the \\ is need to relpace a noraml / in a dir line

code:

var fileout : int open : fileout, "highscore.txt", put

when you are doing something like that, you can specify the string and add the path to specifiy where you want the file to be created. (I think, not sure which slash was it)

code:

var fileout : int open : fileout, "C://My Documents//highscore.txt", put

Or, you could go the Dir way:

code:

var file : int var dirName : string := "C:\\Turing\\Programmes\\Game\\Score\\" Dir.Change (dirName) open : file, "highScore.txt", put % Everything in here. close : file

Its a double backspace "\\" . How do you get the directory of the curently running file?
