You can modify the global package.path yourself, if you know your own directory:

package.path = mydir..'/?.lua;'..package.path

Then require 'a4msdata.lua' works as you want.

So the problem is how to find the directory of your script...look at
arg[0] and extract its path.

require_here() in pl.app works like this (Penlight)
