I have this wrapper application which uses argv[0] to figure out the
directory where it was been installed, setting up all the other
necessary enviroment variables before firing up the main
application. Well, this works on win95; on winnt argv[0] returns only
the first token on the command line (without the full pathname). Is
there a way to get full pathname of the executable that works on both
win95 AND winnt?
Any help greatly appreciated.
