Example: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/$ cd ~ [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cat > test.py from sys import argv print argv[0] [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ python test.py test.py [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cd / [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/$ python test.py /home/jordan/test.py [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/$ So, if you _ALWAYS_ need an absolute path, just using sys.argv[0] might not work.
