you can use "expand('%:p:h')" (which can be done with control+R
followed by "=" to pull in the expression register). Thus, the
whole thing might be wrapped up in a mapping as
:inoremap <f4> <c-r>=expand('%:p:h')<cr>
You can learn more at
:help expand()
:help filename-modifiers
:help i_CTRL-R
Hope this helps,
