I finally worked out how to do it!

If you want to get a value using the Debugger and you want it outside of the debugger, it's non-trivial. The problem is that you can't copy and paste from the results window.

I solved it by doing this:

prompt('dummy',File(app.name));

Then, I was able to copy the result from the prompt window! And a weird result it is too. What do you get? I got this:

/Library/Application%20Support/Adobe/fonts/Reqrd/CMaps/Adobe%20InDesign

which is really weird!
