get default tag.dat path regardless of tagload()ing

[bdeshi]

My XYplorer neurons might be a little rusty; is there any convenient way to find the default tag database file without actually having to reload it with

Code: Select all

/*::echo*/ tagload("")

?

No way.

But the default DB is usually "<xydata>\tag.dat" unless another DB is specified in Admin.ini.

[bdeshi]

hmm. No way around parsing ini? Maybe you could have a <xytagdatdef> to point to default db, but that sounds like asking too much even to my own ears.

I had the same thought so I guess it's okay.
