Yeah, but do all the tasks have their names stored in that field? Have
you tried this (will only work for things started from CLI - I can't
remember how to get the task name for WB progs if it's not inthe
task\ln_Name field):

*wintask.Task = *currwindow\UserPort\mp_SigTask
If *wintask\tc_Node\ln_Type = #NT_PROCESS
*pr.Process = *wintask
*cli.CommandLineInterface = *pr\pr_CLI LSL 2
If *cli
If *cli\cli_CommandName
taskname.s = Peek$(*cli\cli_CommandName LSL 2 + 1)
EndIf
Else
; Program started from WB, not sure about task name
EndIf
Else
; Not a process, so it must be a task. I guess just use your method?
If *wintask\tc_Node\ln_Name
taskname.s = Peek$(*wintask\tc_Node\ln_Name)
Else
taskname.s = "NULL name pointer for task!"
EndIf
EndIf
NPrint taskname

Computer games don't affect kids, I mean if Pac Man affected us as
kids, we'd all be running around in darkened rooms, munching pills and
listening to repetitive music.
