Maybe I haven't understood you completely, but have you tried this?

This should hopefully get you the folder of the currently running
program
from within the program (at least under Win32 and Linux).
That is completely OS (and sometimes OS-version) dependent, and
should not be used if you want portable code (even on Linux it does
not work under all circumstances).
