Hi Retropikzel
Perfect, works out of the box!
I missed this part in the manual, just saw that it is in chapter "Source
Properties" where I would never have guessed to look at.
Thanks very much,
Reza

Hi List
How can I get the absolute path to a source file from itself. In bash
this would look like something along the lines
realpath $(dirname $0)
but I could not figure out how to achieve this in guile.
Thanks for any hints!
Cheers,
Reza
Hi! Might example from here:
https://www.gnu.org/software/guile/manual/guile.html#Load-Paths-1
work?
(dirname (current-filename))
I just want to add, that in most cases you can probably make things work using
the `guile -L` argument and naming the files of guile modules according to the
module defined in them. It has been a long time, since I had to reach for
something like `(dirname (current-filename))`. Of course there might be cases,
where you want to have that directory as a string in your code or so. I am only
writing this, because it is often brought up in a context of adding things to
the load path, where it should not be necessary.
For example see:
https://codeberg.org/ZelphirKaltstahl/guile-algorithms/src/commit/97f29e9a9414bd068e9b6e0745a768ad64a10dac/readme.md.
And if that is too much of a hassle, you could create a makefile, that runs
either the program or a guile shell that has the directories added to the load
path. Something like
https://codeberg.org/ZelphirKaltstahl/guile-algorithms/src/commit/97f29e9a9414bd068e9b6e0745a768ad64a10dac/graphs/Makefile.
Best regards, Zelphir
