48.8. $thisFileName

The compiletime STRING pseudoprocedure $thisFileName returns the name of the current source file, i.e., of the file containing the call to $thisFileName. This can be especially useful to specify the location of a FORWARD PROCEDURE:

FORWARD($thisFileName) PROCEDURE ...

since this use of the FORWARD directive works even if the source file containing it is renamed.
