FileAppend is to write data to the end of a file.
If your computer name is Alice, then
FileAppend A_ComputerName, "Helloworld.txt"
This changes the text of HelloWorld.Txt to
"Hello World.
Alice"
Where Helloworld.txt will (probably) be in the same folder as your script.
You are asking about the file name, which would be
FileAppend "asdf", A_Computername . " Helloworld.txt"
Filename:
"Alice Helloworld.txt"
Text:
"Hello World
asdf"
FileAppend does create a file, so you can just start calling the file and appending to it with the same command:
MyData := "GIGOasdfasdfasdfasdf" MyPath:= "C:\OutputFolder" . A_Computername
FileAppend MyData, MyPath, `n
Gotcha, I don't know why my brain couldn't figure this out. Thanks, I'll try it!
