The "get current PSP" DOS call (DOS 3.x) will get you to the "current"
PSP.  From there, you can use the thing at 2Ch to locate its environment.
I don't know of any environment more "current" than that.  See the
appropriate DOS Technical Reference Manual.

For DOS 2.x, see the undocumented DOS call list that has been posted a
number of times.  There is one that also "gets the current PSP".

Good luck.
