I know I can get the C4D directory path with GeGetStartupPath();
But what I want is to get the path and the NAME of the application. Something like:

MyDisk:Applications:3D Software:8.503:CINEMA 4D 8.5

instead of just:

MyDisk:Applications:3D Software:8.503:

Is this possible?

Only way I can think of is with a FileSelector dialog. Otherwise I´d say, no, not dynamically at least.

Ok, I believe that will have to be the way
Its a shame that the GeGetStartupPath(); doesn't return the full Cinema4D path with the application name included. If we wanted just the folder would be a simple matter of doing path->RemoveLast();
Thank you, Samir.
