I dont see the point of getting pd dir since we can run several instances of same bin with the shell.

In GNU/Linux on some _distros_ you can check the symlink
/proc/self/exe
If you do a readink from within C in Pd you'll get the absolute
path and name of the executable.
However, if you use the command "readlink" to [shell] I imagine
the readlink binary will look in the mirror and give you its own
name back.
I don't think /proc/self/exe is a requirement of all Linux flavors,
and I don't know what the BSD OSes do, or OSX. So I'm reluctant
to add this to [pdinfo].
Windows has its own function accessible from C to return the full
path and name of the executable.
