There is no reliable way.  This is true of Unix, and Linux.

Tell me what you are trying to do and I will probably be able to tell you a better, 
and safer way to do it.

Subject: API to get fullpath name


How do I, within a program, get the full pathname of the program I'm
executing? argv[0] will have the command name but not necessarily the full
pathname.
