OK, thanks.

On every Unix? I once tried this with sh (echo $0) and if I remember correctly
it gave me a relative path on solaris and an absolute path on linux.

I don't use TeXlive in this case, just one LuaTeX binary for luatex and texlua.

So I assume from your answer that arg[0] in my lua skript is set by kpathsea,
and it contains the full path. So I can find out where I am by looking at it?
Thanks again
