I guess that it would be a good idea to include some simple additional programs with TeXmacs for these kind of things: Andrey also had a problem to find the real path of an executable file. If someone has time to write some highly portable C/C++ programs for such things, that would be cool. Probably one should directly base oneself on low-level primitives, like stat in src/System/Files/file.cpp (also in the case of real_path). It is a *SHAME* that Unix does not provide utilities for this by default...
