Is there a way to know where is the source, so as to make a source call
inside another source smarter?
As an example:
file1.R is in directory /files/dir1/
file2.R is in directory /files/dir1/dir2/
In file1.R, there is this line:
source(dir2/file2.R)
So, if I setwd to /files/dir1/, and then
the smarter thing is to write a package, so you don't need source()
at all.
but your problem will be fixed if you use the full path instead:
source(/home/user/dir1/dir2/file2.R)
(and obviously you could pass the path as an argument to whatever
function you're using...)

There is a package available at
http://www.omegahat.org/Prerelease/RSource_0.1-1.tar.gz
that has an extended source() that maintains a list of directories
in which to search for files and a stack of the files currently
being source()d so that one can determine what is currently going on.
