Personally, I think that $ENV{PAR_PROGNAME} should be assigned to $0
because the $ENV{PAR_0} can always be found in:
( split(":", $ENV{PATH}) )[0];
or in the $ENV{PAR_0} (if somebody prefer this).
On Unix ps command shows the names of full command anyway (ps -Af), or
just the name of the command (ps). On Windows it is always the last
part of the path to the program which was run. So I rather would
expect to see the the par package name with the full path as it is
normally done by the Perl in $0.
