[racket] current-directory in tools/plugins

Hi,

I'm trying to determine the plugin folder at runtime for a plugin I'm
writing;

an example of where I'd like this:

        (define commit-button
          (new switchable-button%
               (label "commit")
               (parent (make-object vertical-pane% (get-button-panel)))
               (callback fossil-commit-menu-callback)
               [bitmap (make-object bitmap% "projectmgr.png" 'png #f)]
               ))
        (register-toolbar-button commit-button)
;
        ;; my test
        (dialog (path->string (current-directory)))
  ;; shows current-directory to be '/'

The button appears without the image, and my test seems to confirm that the
plugin is looking to find the PNG in '/' rather than inthe folder where the
plugin is running from.

Any hints appreciated, as I can't seem to work this out from the
documentation.

Cheers,

Stephen
