I made a shell script which starts an java application. I was trying to make a clickable interface in mac so that one can start the application. The constraint is that that script should be executed from the directory where it resides, i could set that easily on linux and windows, but on mac the terminal always open in ~. How should I tell script to change the wd to the directory where it resides and run the application. 

I tried appending .command to the shell script but it runs in ~. How should I get the information of the directory from where it is invoked?
I know mac lovers are around here, could you tell me how to do this, I am fed up.

I tried this: http://www.entropy.ch/software/applescript/OpenTerminalHere.sit
but couldn't make proper use of it when running the same .term file created from above on another computer.

Suggestions?
