Javascript to get my machine's name

Hi SychevKA,

"computername" would only work on Windows, I think.

Unfortunately a lot of the old InDesign Scripting Forum is missing.

In 2011 there was a thread about this issue where someone, I think it was John Hawkinson, answered the question like this:

if (File.fs == "Windows" ) {
	var myUserName  = $.getenv('username');
	var mySysName  = $.getenv('computername');
	}

else if (File.fs == "Macintosh") {
		   var myUserName  = $.getenv('USER');
		   var mySysName  = app.doScript('do shell script "hostname"', ScriptLanguage.APPLESCRIPT_LANGUAGE);
	}

$.writeln( myUserName +"\r"+ mySysName );

Also see into this related thread that is still available:

$.getenv() on Mac
