setmacro alias$SetCSDToVar set %0 <FileSwitch$CurrentFilingSystem>:|<FileSwitch$<FileSwitch$CurrentFilingSystem>$CSD>
I've been wondering how to do this for 2.75 years :(
Bonus points if you can find a way of doing it as a system variable! (Without writing a Code variable :P) |

Hmm, just realised I still want it as a system variable.

Well until then, have some BASIC code for a system variable containing the CSD. |

I've been wondering how to do this for 2.75 years 
Bonus points if you can find a way of doing it as a system variable! (Without writing a Code variable  ) I had this kind of thing set as pwd($dir or whatever) on my home machine (although for some reason, it would only work as two lines).
Not entirely sure why I did that instead of writing a small BASIC prog that would respond to the command "pwd" instead, but it was probably more for the challenge.
[time passes...]
Oh yes, now I remember, I needed it as a variable so that I could put it in my CLI prompt, so it was a bit UNIX-like. I also had the current date/time underneath so it wasn't entirely UNIX-y though.

 Cheers,
Rich.
