Function to retrieve running script

[Harlin Seritt]

Is there a function that allows one to get the name of the same script
running returned as a string?

Thanks,

Something like:

import sys
def f():
return sys.modules['__main__'].__file__

might help.

The questions a little ambiguous, but one answer might be:

import sys
myname = sys.argv[0]

Thanks Mike,

that will work just as well... just disappointed in myself that i lack
the creativity to think of something that simple ;-)

thanks,
