Saving snapshots to files

[A.C.T.]

Moin, Wilhelm,

I am trying to learn "Transcript" and I still seem to learn better by 
looking at working code, if the documentation is as incompatible to my 
brain as Revolution's doc is.

>     put char (LastSlash + 1) to Laenge of LongDateiName into Dateiname
>    put char 1 to (LastSlash - 1) of LongDateiName into NewDirectory

This smells like "basename" and "dirname" to me. Aren't these standard 
function available in Revolution? I would like to have a list of 
standard-functions listed against their Revolution versions (repeating 
the discussion about "reinventing the wheel"), perhaps this also would 
help those list members that try to port C-code to Transcript?

Your routine to search for slashes might run into trouble if the user 
wanted to include slashes in his filename, it would have to take care of 
the platform (I guess) and eventually even look out for quotation marks 
(as slashes in filenames are allowed everywhere as long as they are 
escaped correctly).

Mit freundlichen Grüßen,
