==========================

Proc::Pathname - Retrieves the fully qualified path for the program

A common way to retrieve a path for the program is using the variables 

$0 and $^X. However, sometimes it is not working for you. So, you have 

to find a way to retrieve the path for the program somehow differently.

The module is using system calls to do the job and written as XS module.

This module was made for mine private purposes, mostly, for staticperl.

INSTALLATION

To install this module type the following:

   perl Makefile.PL

   make

   make test

   make install

DEPENDENCIES

This module requires these other modules and libraries:

BUGS

Completely broken on OpenBSD as of version 0.08, because of

OpenBSD does not provide a suitable way to determine

a location of a running process. Current implementation is

based on the program `which' and it tries to find a path 

via the PATH environment variable.
