  At the time, I ended up googling for something like: function Get-Script-Directory { $scriptInvocation = (Get-Variable MyInvocation -Scope 1).Value return Split-Path $scriptInvocation.MyCommand.Path } I found that [1] lists a one-liner too, but that's also a four-liner if you'd turn it into a function. Still, I can't remember that shit by heart. I don't want to. Why do I have to? Did these people ever even use Powershell themselves?

Sidenote: if something like node.js, entirely designed for fast asynchronous networking, despite all its callback hell and whatnot, is a better and more user-friendly Windows scripting host than Powershell, some people really should start to worry. Maybe if Powershell had something like npm, including its (simply perfect) install-to-current-directory-by-default, people could fix all the holes MS left behind. I might even start to like it then.
