How fast get real / absolute path of specified file. I try use readlink, but this slow (for path /home/web/docs/index.htm must be done 4 or more (if this path have symlinks) readlink's - for /home, /home/web, /home/web/docs and /home/web/docs/index.htm). Is any faster/simpler method for getting absolute path of file?

Steve
