MEL: Current Scene File Name

Similar to the post below, today it took more than a minute or two to find this, which to me makes it warrant a post. This is useful for incremental save scripts, or anything else you may use it for.

To get the current scene file's full name:

`file -q -sn`

so...

string $currentScenePath = `file -q -sn` ;
