Full Discussion: Function to get the current script name

Function to get the current script name
I have a function to get the executing scripts name.
Code:
Script_nm() {
Parent=$( ps -f -p $PPID -o and | tail -l | sed -e 's/ *[bak]\{1,\}sh *//' | awk '{print $1}' )
If [ $parent = '-bash' ] ; then
Script_nm='bash_test.sh'
Else
Script_nm=$( basename $parent )
Fi
Echo "$script_nm"
Return 0
}

We are calling this function in another script which is used to load the values in the database. This function is not getting the name of the scripts properly. Is there any other logic that can be used for this function ? We have multiple scripts and using the same function to collect the scripts name when they are getting executed. Does adding script_nm=`basename $0` ? work if I add this in all the scripts ?

	   put <filename> upload script to server.

	   get <name> [<filename>] get script. if no filename display to stdout
