New command $filename. #23
Description
Define $filename(name) to be the absolute path of the file that Nancy would expand to satisfy $include(name).
This would avoid several uses of $run(dirname,$realpath). For example, in Linton, the file template.in.html includes the following (BTW what is $expand doing here?):
Last updated $run(lastmodified.in.py,$expand{$run(dirname,$realpath)}/body.in.md)
This finds the last-modified date of a file body.in.md that is in the same directory as whatever file included template.in.html. It is technically broken, in that body.in.md might not be in that directory; it might instead be in a parent directory, or in a different input tree. This example would be clearer and more correct, and would avoid using $realpath, if it were written like this:
Last updated $run(lastmodified.in.py,$filename(body.in.md))
