what do you mean by "current file" (as opposed to where [menusave( saves
the patch to)?

since both you and liam use the [s pd-mypatch.pd] idiom, i'd like to
point out that this might be tricky, as the [savetofile( might rename
the patch... so the following will only work once:

<snip>
[savetofile yourpatch.pd .(
|
[s pd-mypatch.pd]
</snip>

a safer approach is to use [namecanvas]:


<snip>
[savefile yourpatch.pd .(
|
[s $0-canvas]

[namecancas $0-canvas]
</snip>
