I would like to get a file reference (or alias) to the directory containing the script that is running. Is there a way to do this?


How is the script going to be run? Using

path to me

will return the alias for either the script itself or the app that is running the script. Depends on how it is run. To get its container, you can use:

tell application "Finder" to get container of (path to me) as string
