Using Tcl_FindExecutable without argv

[halfm...@gmail.com]

Hi Everyone

This is the normal way:

Tcl_FindExecutable(argv[0])

but I am in a runtime and I can't access argv[0], is there another way to access the name of the executable or is there another function I could use instead?

Thanks for reading-Patrick

Tcl_FindExecutable(NULL);

After that, [info nameofexecutable] in that process will not return
anything useful, but other initializations should be fine.
