Hey, if i put the program in ("/.minecraft/mods/ComputerCraft/lua/rom/programs/MY PROGRAM")
So that it's accsessable from all computers.

What is the Path? i can't find out how the path is!
if i do something like shell.run("/.minecraft/mods/ComputerCraft/lua/rom/programs/MY PROGRAM")
It doesn't work!

From CC's perspective it's in "/rom/programs/".
In general you can use shell.resolveProgram("programname") to get the absolute path of any program.
Also, if you execute shell.getRunningProgram() from within a program, then you will get the absolute path of where the program is running from.
