Any way to retrieve this patcher's scripting name so I can pass it to another patcher or a subpatcher?

Thanks for your help,
Have a great day,

I'm probably wrong but I'm not sure a top-level patch has a scripting name.

But you can set scripting names to sub patchers.

And you can get their name with JavaScript, calling this function in the subpatch :

    outlet (0,this.patcher.box.varname);
