finding current drive

P

Parv G.

hello,

Is there a way to find out under what drive my current/active file is?

if the .rb file i'm working on is sitting in c:/code/ruby/myfile.rb, i
would like to find a way to retrieve "c".

Thanks!

Dir.pwd - if you want to find out what the "working directory" is,
i.e. where the user was when he launched the script.

File.expand_path($0) - if you want to find what script was run from
the command line.

File.expand_path(__FILE__) - if you want to find the path to the
current script file.
