[julia-users] Re: Getting the name of the running program
If with name of the program you mean the name of the file where the function is defined println(@__FILE__) makes the job.

[julia-users] Re: Getting the name of the running program
In addition to getting the current file via @__FILE__, in Julia 0.5 you can get the name of the currently running script (e.g. "foo.jl" when you run "julia foo.jl") via PROGRAM_FILE: https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/pull/14114
[julia-users] Re: Getting the name of the running program
Hi, thanks for the tip, but in IJulia @__FILE__="" and nothings cames out from the println()... I'm running julia 0.4.5, so no 0.5 solution is useful here... Best, Ferran.

Re: [julia-users] Re: Getting the name of the running program
You can use backtrace() for this, but interpreting the result is a little complicated. See the implementation of @showln in https://github.com/timholy/DebuggingUtilities.jl for some pointers.
