Hi all,
I want to save the tiffs of different views automatically. I am trying to use tcl script to do it. My problem is that I need to pass the file's name that is being displayed in the tksurfer window to the tiff file that I want to save to.
For example,
I am running
tksurfer -f $surface_file -tcl my_script.tcl
In my_script.tcl, I have the following command:
save_tiff ${file_name}-lateral.tiff
How can I pass the $surface_file in my command to ${file_name} in my_scripts.tcl?
Thanks.

Hi Yang, there is not a way to pass it from the tksurfer command line. What I've done in the past is to write another script to which I pass these types of arguments. This scripts constructs the tcl script then runs tksurfer with the appropriate arguments.

the easiest way is probably to use an environment variable, which you can access in tcl with $env(VAR_NAME) I think

Hi Bruce,
Thanks for your suggestion. I actually solved the problem by creating a new tcl script for each look.
