  1. bash

Directory of script

It's often useful to know the path of the script being executed, e.g. for sourcing other files.

DIR="$( cd "$( dirname "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}" )" >/dev/null 2>&1 && pwd )"

This solution works as long as the last component of the path used to find the script is not a symlink.
