customMaterial function, with specular and normal map

This is the function of a custom material, if you have many textures you use this function:
function custMate( %name)
{
%mate = "new customMaterial("@%name@") {"@
"mapTo = \"" @ %name @ ".jpg\";" @
"texture[0] = \"" @ %name @ "\";" @
"texture[1] = \"" @ %name @ "_NRM\";" @
"texture[2] = \"" @ %name @ "_SPEC\";" @
"version = 2.0;"@
"shader = SpecMap;"@
"};";
eval(%mate);
}
this is with a shader that i found here, anyway, you only have to include the function in any .cs, and in the properly materials.cs, you say
custMate("examplename");
aaah, in mapTo, the .jpg is because i use maya, and it has to use in that way, also, _NRM is the normal map, i mean,
custMate("examplename");
its like
new customMaterial(examplename)
{
mapTo = "examplename.jpg";
texture[0] = "examplename"; //the diffuse file is examplename.jpg
texture[1] = "examplename_NRM"; //the normal map is examplename_NRM.jpg
texture[2] = "examplename_SPEC"; //the specular map is examplename_SPEC.jpg
version = 2.0;
shader = SpecMap;
};
function custMate( %name)
{
%mate = "new customMaterial("@%name@") {"@
"mapTo = \"" @ %name @ ".jpg\";" @
"texture[0] = \"" @ %name @ "\";" @
"texture[1] = \"" @ %name @ "_NRM\";" @
"texture[2] = \"" @ %name @ "_SPEC\";" @
"version = 2.0;"@
"shader = SpecMap;"@
"};";
eval(%mate);
