#4236: pwdx isn't available on OS X

 Priority:  normal     |      Milestone:        
Component:  arm        |        Version:

-----------------------+----------------------------------------------------
 When starting arm and connecting to a tor process that used a relative
 path for torrc, arm complains it can't find the torrc:

 {{{
 [ARM_WARN] Unable to load torrc (querying tor's pwd failed because the
 pwdx call failed: 'pwdx' is unavailable)
 }}}

 Instead, on OS X you can use this (quite possibly something more elegant
 is possible too, but didn't see it in lsof's manpage at first glance):

 {{{
 lsof -a -p $PID -d cwd -Fn | cut -c2- | grep -v $PID
 }}}
