I haven't had a look at the sources, so basically I am not sure where I
am precisely talking about, but many programs use the argv[0] parameter
to main as program name. This method is then fail safe for whatever
filename you give to the program.

fprintf(stderr,"Usage: %s [inputBase] [outputFile]\n", argv[0]);
