Hi,

Is there a way in OS X to get the full path of a
program where it's being executed?

I need to know the location where the user stores my
program (along with some configuration files), to set
up its running environment.

Look at NSBundle

http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Reference/Foundation/ObjC_classic/Classes/NSBundle.html

You can get your app bundle path with

NSString *path = [[NSBundle mainBundle] bundlePath];

For resources, use the other NSBundle APIs to find them. NSBundle can handle finding things by name, file extension, and localization.
