Getting filename from PS device [message #12472]

Hi all.

How can I determine the filename that the PS device is using? I'd like
to write a timestamp contining the output filename when I close the
PS device, but for convenience, I would like the timestamp routine to be
able to figure out the output filename without having to create a new
variable.

Now I know that IDL knows what filename it's using, since the help, /device
command will show it, but how can I access that filename? Is there a
system variable that contains the filename?
