Hi Jacek,

?MODULE:module_info() might be able to help you.
You can match out the compile, source element:

mod:module_info().
[{exports,[{init,0},
{cmds,0},
{stop,0},
{start,0}]},
{imports,[]},
{attributes,[{vsn,[277449438541699252019369955108873496019]}]},
{compile,[{options,[export_all,export_all]},
{version,"4.6"},
{time,{2009,5,26,13,3,34}},
{source,"/home/user/mod.erl"}]}]


//Sean.
