string my_name()

This function returns the logged-in character's name as a string.

This example imports different breakfast scripts depending on which character is running the script.

 if (my_name() == "zammywarrior") {
   import <Zammy Morning.ash>;
 }
 else if (my_name() == "hippymon") {
   import <Hippy Morning.ash>;
 }

Note that capitalization is not strictly adhered to. When using my_name() the following examples are functionally equivalent:

 if (my_name() == "That FN Ninja") {
     // code
 }

 if (my_name() == "that fn ninja") {
    // code
 }

When not logged in, this function returns an empty string.
