Reference the path to a file that is in a current edit session

Greetings,

I have created a Python addin button. I currently have the name of specific file embedded in the addin python code. I will like to the script to be able to search for the file that is currently open in an edit session, rather than have to have a specific file name. This will also make sure that tool is not used outside of an edit session when changes can not be reversed.

Code:

def __init__(self):
        self.enabled = True
        self.checked = False
    def onClick(self):
                inFeatures="m8010_seginit_061213"
                fieldName="LFM"
                expression=3000
                arcpy.CalculateField_management(inFeatures, fieldName, expression, "PYTHON")

I would like to the variable "inFeatures" to be equal something like "CURRENT" or whatever the path is to the file that is currently open for editing.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Fred
