_readFile function does not work in relative path

Hi All,
There is one issue i observe with _readFile function.
_readFile function only works with Absolute Path: [Eg: _readFile("C:\\test.txt"); ]
If we use relative path something like [Eg: _readFile("test.txt");] script fails. It does not throw any error on console. script file and text.txt exist in the same folder though.
This behavior makes it difficult to work on Mac OS. It restricts the interopobility.
I went through "http://sahi.co.in/w/_readfile" help, it does not mention any example about how to use relative path.
Can any one please let me know, how to work with relative path using _readFile() function ?

Eg.
_readFile(_userDataDir() + "/scripts/myFile.txt")
