How to navigate to a relative file?

[tooltrainer 12]

I'm including an HTML front end with my new bot, that is loaded from a simple static .html file that I want to include with the bot.

 

Problem is, I can't figure out how to make sure the bot navigates to where the file is located no matter where someone may have it on their machine.

 

I only see location variables for the Programs folder and the Documents folder. How do I tell UBot to navigate to wherever the bot itself is installed and then look for the UI file from there?

I believe this is pretty much impossible right now unless you load in a settings.txt or something.

Nope, Dave answered it... at least in the way I needed it:

Use $application folder. This is the folder that ubot is running from when using the bot from within ubot but will be the folder where the compiled bot is on a customers machine.

Oops didn't see where you'd already solved it! Didnt scroll down far enough.
