Beginner ?: How to know actual path to imported package.?

[eewah]

Lets say I have a script that require MYLIB:

package require MYLIB

Is there any command that I can use to locate actual path to the MYLIB package which is being required?

Thanks....!

From the Tcl manual:
info loaded ?interp?
Returns a list describing all of the packages that have been loaded into interp with the load command. Each list element is a sub-list with two elements consisting of the name of the file from which the package was loaded and the name of the package. For statically-loaded packages the file name will be an empty string. If interp is omitted then information is returned for all packages loaded in any interpreter in the process. To get a list of just the packages in the current interpreter, specify an empty string for the interp argument.


So:

  package require Tk
  # package name
  set searched Tk
  # get searched item from the list
  foreach item [info loaded {}] \
  {
    foreach {file package} $item break
    if {$package eq $searched} { break }
  }
  
  puts $file
