Or:

  #!/usr/bin/env python

  import sys
  import os

  me = sys.argv[0]
  print "This is how you invoked me: %s" % (me,)
  print "This is the absolute path: %s" % (os.path.abspath(me),)

Usage:

  mark at dev /var/tmp/buffer
  $ python ../junk.py
  This is how you invoked me: ../junk.py
  This is the absolute path: /var/tmp/junk.py
