Well, for a workbench program that's easy...WBenchMsg->sm_ArgList[0].wa_Lock
is a lock on the file the executable came from, and the usual Examine()/
ParentDir() loop will turn that into a full path quite easily (SMOP).

I couldn't find anything comparable for CLI-launched programs, although
I wondered about (struct CommandLineInterface)->cli_CommandDir. If that
doesn't do it than I guess the only solution is the previously posted
answer of "which".
