Hi!

What would be the best way to get the path of the file one window currently displays?
I tried calling [self fileName] from within my NSDocument object, but that returned a null pointer.
[self displayName] returns Untitled.

Thanks,

Ben

If the document isn't saved yet there's no file path to return. Try saving the document first.
