macro to save images as tif

Hei,

I would like to save a number of images as tif. If I record a macro in
which I save a sample image as tif-file then Image J gives every image
processed with that macro exactly the same name. But I want to save
every image with its original file name.

I tried to use the gettitle() function. But if I put that function into
the saveAs function (see at the bottom) it is not executed but used as a
string to name the file.

This is how the macro looks like right now:

while (nImages>0) {
title = getTitle();
print("title: " + title);
saveAs("Tiff", "C:\\Users\\Admins\\Desktop\\confocal tifs\\gettitle()");
close();
}

Can somebody give me a hint how to solve that problem?

cheers,

Finn
