+
+`require.main.filename` is great for figuring out the entry
+point for the current application. This can be combined with a module like
+[pkg-conf](https://www.npmjs.com/package/pkg-conf) to, _as if by magic_, load
+top-level configuration.
+
+Unfortunately, `require.main.filename` sometimes fails when an application is
+executed with an alternative process manager, e.g., [iisnode](https://github.com/tjanczuk/iisnode).
+
+`require-main-filename` is a shim that addresses this problem.
+
+## Usage
+
+```js
+var main = require('require-main-filename')()
+// use main as an alternative to require.main.filename.
+```
