%obj.save(%filename); <<-- How does this work?

Hello,
I am trying to save a datablock to a file.
I have found a command but cant get it to work.
The command is: %obj.save(%filename);
If I were to try and save a datablock like the RifleFireEmitter datablock I would go:
RifleFireEmitter.save("./somefile.cs");.
When the command is issued it seems to do nothing, there are no errors or anything.
What am I doing wrong?
Does somefile.cs have to allready exist?

I'm guessing that the relative pathing stuff hasn't been added to the SimObject save method. Try using a full (rooted in the exe dir) path ie. "fps/blah/blah/blah"
