Re: Re: New Gui4Cli release (request)

Hi Chris,

Thanks for the feedback.

$$this.path is the path that the gui that contains it is in.

The path of gui4cli.exe is the HOME: assign.

If the gui4cli.exe you are running is different from the installed one (ie
in script exes etc), the path of the installed gui4cli (if there is one
installed) is in the INSTALL: assign.

To get the actual path from the assigns, you can do:

v = "HOME:"
extract v fullpath
