KSP Reference Manual

The following path variables are available:
$GET_FOLDER_LIBRARY_DIR
If used with an nki belonging to an encoded library: library folder.
If used with an unencoded nki: the user content directory.
$GET_FOLDER_FACTORY_DIR
The factory folder of KONTAKT, mainly used for loading factory IR samples.
Note: this is not the factory library folder!
$GET_FOLDER_PATCH_DIR
The directory in which the patch was saved.
If the patch was not saved before, an empty string is returned.
Remarks
• The behaviour 
$GET_FOLDER_LIBRARY_DIR
changed from KONTAKT 5 on. If the NKI be-
longs to an encoded library, it will point to its library folder. Otherwise, the user content directory
is returned.
Example
on init
message(get_folder($GET_FOLDER_FACTORY_DIR))
end on
