Thanks everyone for your replies!

It certainly looks more challenging than I would have thought, the
cmds.file(query=True,
list=True) is close, and the listFiles of filePathEditor almost got it, and
though it looks to work with file nodes, it doesn’t seem to work with
reference nodes, and I wonder what else it won’t work with. Alembic files
probably, as you say, Roy.

What’s more, it doesn’t look like reference nodes contain their unresolved
filename, maybe this is resolved by the editor itself?

# Always returns a resolved path?
cmds.getAttr("ben02_RN.fileNames[0]")

The goal of this little experiment is to be able to look at a scene and
determine whether there are any *absolute paths* in it. As in, paths
starting with either a drive letter and a colon (Windows), or a forward
slash (Unix).

I’d like to look at a scene with these paths:

$ROOT/myfile.mb
$OTHERROOT/myotherfile.mb
/server/mythirdfile.mb

And go “aha, that’s 1 absolute path, and it belongs to node.myAttr”.
