__NOTOC__
This function resolves a specified path into its absolute version. This function can be used to get a unique version of a path (without scripting symbols such as '..').

==Syntax==
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
string translator:absPath ( string path )
</syntaxhighlight>

==Arguments==
*'''path:''' the path that should be resolved into an absolute path; can be nil to return the absolute location of the current directory.

==Returns==

==Example==
<section name="Client" class="client" show="true">
This snippet prints the absolute location of the shared client-side resource folder.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
-- Get the absolute path to our resource.
local absResourceLocation = fileCreateTranslator( "/" ):absPath();

-- Print it out to the user.
outputChatBox( "running resource from: " .. absResourceLocation );
</syntaxhighlight>
</section>
