On Sun, 6 May 2012 Martin Scharrer submitted an update to the
currfile
package.
Summary description: Support for absolute file paths and real main file name
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This update provides the new options abspath and realmainfile which enable absolute
file directories and paths and the determination of the real main file name if -jobname is
set to a different name.
These features are implemented using the new sub-package currfile-abspath which can
also be used on its own to determine the parent workind directory (PWD), the absolute
directory and path of any file accessible by TeX and the real main file name.
