How to script Illustrator to insert filename in to textpath?

Question

Hello everybody!
I'm new to the scripting technology, and i wonder if its possible to create a java or apple script to do the following:
We are forced to name our thousands of illu-files on a specific way, that's ok, but: we have to insert the filename as text in to the illustrator-file, so that we can find the file through a hardcopy.
We are doing this manualy and this goes often wrong, so we have to reopen the file, change the text and save and print it again.
Can anybody give me a hint or even better show me a piece of code how to insert the filename of the actual illustrator-file in the active cursor-position.
My thanks!
Regards
Gregor

This snippet of code will add the file's name at the bottom-left corner of the illustrator. You can have this code run on an entire folder of files automatically or change the position\contents of the text.
// CODE BEGIN
var pointTextRef = app.activeDocument.textFrames.add();
pointTextRef.contents = app.activeDocument.name;
pointTextRef.top = 20;
pointTextRef.left = 10;
// CODE END
