- So, in my opinion, it does not make much sense to have any library attached
- to any directory but HOME. My HP ends up doing a warm start every other
- day or so, so all my libs are suddenly attached to HOME.
-
- Does anybody really use a lib that is attached to a sub-directory? I wouldn't
- want it unless I could have it attached to the sub-directory, and not HOME.
-
- Just my $0.02 (maybe less...)
