T4

I've been messing around with T4 support in Mono and noticed a very cumbersome thing. The current directory when running T4 templates is the home directory. I need to be able to read a few files from the current project's directory but I'm at a loss for how to.

<#@ template language="C#v3.5" #>
<#@ output extension="txt" #>

<#=System.IO.Directory.GetCurrentDirectory() #>

yields

/home/earlz

where I want it to yield something like

/home/earlz/MyProject

How do I overcome this problem?

Also, I tried the hostspecific and Host.ResolvePath, but I got a NotImplementedException
