Find animation connected to .ty?

[mrwolfy]

I would like to be able to use MEL to discover the names of some animation curves connected to some selected geometry, so that I can write a script to connect the animation of each selected piece of geometry to another node attribute.

something like:

 string $mySelection[] = `ls -sl`;
 string $myCurve = `"the curve connected to" $mySelection[0] + ".ty"`;

this would hopefully return the name of the animation curve connected to $mySelection[0].ty. So of course I made up the ""the curve connected to" $mySelection[0] + ".ty"" part, because this is my question, how to write that code.

below is an image of the geometry and the animation curve.

THANKS!!!

Select the source object to copy animation from, and then target object to copy to.
Then run this:

string $sel[] = ls -sl;
string $anim[] = listConnections -t "animCurve" -d 0 -p 1 ($sel[0]+".ty");
connectAttr $anim[0] ($sel[1]+".ty");
