Move Library Files to Library Folder OK?

bill190

I was searching ALL OVER for the Propeller Library and could not find it anywhere!

Then as a last resort, I read the directions (when all else fails, read the directions!). I read that you could click on the down arrow (drop down box) on the upper left of the editor and thus find the library...

FYI -·It is·in the following folder·along with the Propeller editor files...

C:\Program Files\Parallax Inc\Propeller Tool v1.2.7 (R2)

Question: Is there any harm in moving the .spin files from the above folder into a new folder in that location called "Library"?

Or do other spin programs look for these files in that location?

If yes, is there some sort of "Path" setting for places to search for files like these? Or does the spin compiler just look in the current directory you are using?

I tried moving these files and that did not work. The editor complained. Said "No library files found!"

So I just copied them back and also to an easy to find "Library" folder. I also found a copy of these files in a "Library" folder in the Help folder.

I could not find any settings to change the Path for the editor to find these files...

I'm also copying all documentation to one easy to find folder called Documentation. This stuff is all over the place!

And as I download objects, some of these come with a pdf document. I'm copying those into my one "Documentation" folder. Then everything will be in one place!
