Purpose:Find the full, true path and file name for a file

 

Format:TRUENAME file

 

See also:  The @TRUENAME variable function.

 

Usage:

 

Network reassignments, junctions, symbolic links, and the SUBST command can obscure the true name of a file. TRUENAME "sees through" these obstacles and reports the fully qualified name of a file.

 

The following example uses TRUENAME to get the true pathname for a file:

 

[c:\] subst d: c:\util\test

[c:\] truename d:\test.exe

c:\util\test\test.exe
