I feel silly for asking this. But I just realized I don't try this very often.

Is there a way for a shell script to find itself? Or more precisely, the 
directory it is in?

I am trying to run a program that wants an ini file specified on the command 
line; but it defaults to the assumption of having its config file in /etc 
unless you tell it where it is. And rather than a one-line script that hard 
codes a directory, I'd rather that it (the script) can tell where it is 
located, to use an ini file there.

(Yea, a one-line script to just pass a config file argument to a program.)
