Workspace Identification

⎕WSID

This is a simple character vector. It contains the identification name of the active workspace. If a new name is assigned, that name becomes the identification name of the active workspace, provided that it is a correctly formed name.

See Workspaces for workspace naming conventions.

It is useful, though not essential, to associate workspaces with a specific directory in order to distinguish workspaces from other files.

The value of ⎕WSID in a clear workspace is 'CLEAR WS'. ⎕WSID has workspace scope.

Example

      ⎕WSID
CLEAR WS

      ⎕WSID←'ws/mywork       (UNIX)

      ⎕WSID←'B:\WS\MYWORK'   (Windows)
