lua question; target's target text

[Litterbox]

I've tried to find this little block of code everywhere, but without luck.
What I want it to do is something similar to the following:
if target = player (me) display (insert text -ex. "you")
else display none

Is this even possible?
If so, how?

Can't tell exactly the answer, too long w/o practice, but you can look at TipTac addon, it surely has the "<<<You>>>" string in tooltip when someone is targeting you

Perhaps take a look at any of the tooltip addons such as TipTac or check out the code in the TukUI tooltip.

Where? In the tooltip? Need more info.
The basic code is as follows:

if UnitIsUnit("player", "target") then
    -- do stuff
end

I know you didn't want the "else" section to not display anything, but this will explicitly print out "none" so you can learn how it's done:

/run if GetUnitName("player") == GetUnitName("target") then print("you") else print("none") end

This one only prints out when you're your own target:

/run if GetUnitName("player") == GetUnitName("target") then print("you") end

edit: meh, the master replied before me, and his is more streamlined

- It was actually for Pitbull. So instead of the target's target's name, then it would be blank, or say "you" instead if I was the target.

Thanks a bunch, all of you.
Got it to work with this:

if UnitIsUnit("player", "target") 
   then return ("you")
end

Fiddled around with it a bit to make it print stuff in the chatlog and there's definitely room for some more practice (fun) there.
Thanks again guys.
