It’s a bit of an adjustment.  If you get into any serious lisp coding,
check out paredit – it forces you to always have balanced brackets in
the file, thus avoiding a whole class of silly but hard-to-spot mistakes
on lines ending with and avalanche of )))))

Something like (file-name-directory (buffer-file-name)) should do the
trick, I think.  It would be good if you could test tangling from a
remote (i.e. via TRAMP) org file to a local output file and vice versa
to make sure that this DTRT in those cases as well.

Don’t hesitate to ask if you have more questions!
