I wrote these a while ago, and I'm not sure if they're still useful or not,
but I'll just send them along without any guarantee. I have used them like
(__FILE__) and (__DIR__) when I wanted to get access to things relative to
the current file.
(defmacro __FILE__ []
`(if *file*
(let [f# (ClassLoader/getSystemResource *file*)]
(if f#
(.getCanonicalPath (java.io.File. (.toURI f#)))
(.getCanonicalPath (java.io.File. *file*))))))
(defmacro __DIR__ []
`(dirname (__FILE__)))
(defn dirname [path]
(.getParent (File. path)))
