[Lazarus] Package directory at runtime

[Krzysztof]

Hmm. Is an easier way? The point is that my package with visual
controls, has subcatalog "styles". In design mode, when user open
style manager (double click on control) then I would like to display
all files in that directory. For the first time I could ask the user
for the path to the package, but where then save this path? In
Lazarus's home directory?
