I have several scm files; they all live in a single folder (which is on GIMP search path for scripts).

I have common code for three of the scripts which all goes into a fourth. A fifth has defines which user of scripts may wsh to alter; the fourth script depends on it.

If I just leave nature -- or GIMP to take it's course, the scripts don't load when scripts come up, unless I arrange for the most- depended on script (the fifth) to have a name prceeding all others in alphabetical sort order, the fourth the next in order.

If I refresh scripts, name order doesn't seem to matter, all works fine.

Okay, so to avoid problem I'd like to explicitly load one file from another. But (load ) seems to require an absolute path. I don't want to specify absolute path because other users of scripts (which are mean to be distributed) could put scripts anywhere.

Is there a way to refer to something like "folder in which curent script resides" or "user GIMP configuration folder" (e.g. on my machine Docs and Settings\UserName\.gimp-2.6)?

Yrs,

Alan
