Todd,

That is true only when the program you are running happens to be in your 
current directory
(as is very common, but not nearly universal, and not the case for Joe’s use 
case).

cat > a.raku <<END
    say \$*PROGRAM.parent;
END
raku a.raku
OUTPUT: ".".IO

mkdir        Temp_some_subdir
mv -i a.raku Temp_some_subdir/
raku         Temp_some_subdir/a.raku
OUTPUT: "Temp_some_subdir”.IO
