Hi EveryOne!,

This is a Mac OS X environment and Is it possible to get the current full Username and computer name in Extendscript?

Check out app.systemInformation, it has a lot of things.

User name:

alert ($.getenv('USER')); 

From ps-scripts.com • View topic - Mac Environmental Variables‌:

function getSystemCommandStdout (command)
{
   var stdout = null;
   var tempFile = new File (Folder.temp + "/temp.txt");
   app.system (command + " > " + tempFile.fsName);
   if (tempFile.open ("r"))
   {
      stdout = tempFile.read ();
      tempFile.close ();
      tempFile.remove ();
   }
   return stdout;
}

Computer name:

alert (getSystemCommandStdout ("hostname -s").trim ());

Short user name:

alert (getSystemCommandStdout ("id -P | cut -d: -f1").trim ());

Full user name:

alert (getSystemCommandStdout ("id -P | cut -d: -f8").trim ());
