Is there a way to get the full path of the current source file? Something like:

__FILE_FULL_PATH__

I'm asking because I'm rewriting a batch script in D, meant to be ran with rdmd. However, the script needs to know it's own path. The original batch script uses the %~dp0 variable for this, but I'm at a loss on how to do this in D. Since rdmd compiles the executable to the %TEMP% directory, thisExePath won't work.

BATCH
-----
echo "Directory of this script is " %~dp0


What about using a wrapper around rdmd, so the program is executed with an additional parameter or an environment variable containing "FULL_PATH".

When I started with D, I "accidentaly" wrote my own replacement script for rdmd compiling xyz.d with dmd to xyz or calling xyz depending on the modification times of the files.
