Yes, but also in this case if I run the file as a script than the console is retarted and we loose all previous work. Effectively we are in a very same situation as we had with the current directory setting.
Perhaps could it be the definitive solution to have the option "running as a script" not restarting the shell? If this is needed the user can do it very easily manually, or perhaps having a third option, i.e. run as a script (with all the special settings __file__ setting directory,) but not automatically restarting. (just a thought) Finally I not really need to use __file__ I would just need to find out another way to get the current filename.
