Can I get the absolute path to the current script in KornShell?

Question

Is it possible to find out the full path to the script that is currently executing in KornShell (ksh)?

i.e. if my script is in /opt/scripts/myscript.ksh

I upgraded the Edward Staudt's answer, to be able to deal with absolute-path symbolic links, and with chains of links too.

DZERO=$0
while true; do
  echo "Trying to find real dir for script $DZERO"
  CPATH=$( cd -P -- "$(dirname -- "$(command -v -- "$DZERO")")" && pwd -P )
  CFILE=$CPATH/`basename $DZERO`
  if [ `ls -dl $CFILE | grep -c "^l" 2>/dev/null` -eq 0 ];then
    break
  fi
  LNKTO=`ls -ld $CFILE | cut -d ">" -f2 | tr -d " " 2>/dev/null`
  DZERO=`cd $CPATH ; command -v $LNKTO`
done

Ugly, but works... After run this, the path is $CPATH and the file is $CFILE
