PropellerIDE library

I recently loaded the latest version (0.35) of PropellerIDE to my MacBook Pro with El Capitan. I was previously using 0.25, I think. In any case, all of my Spin programs used to run just fine, but now many do not because of missing object(s). I discovered that many of the programs that do not run call Parallax Serial Terminal methods. If PST is included in the work folder the main program runs. But, if it relies on PST in the library, it does not run.

So, I started searching for the library and it is nowhere to be found. Is it possible to restore the library? I know that Brett is working on a library project - did the path change, or is it temporarily unavailable?

I must have missed something.

    The PropellerIDE project owner, Brett has been making quite a few changes, recently... I've noticed a more-complete set of libraries added within the application itself. The app has a Preferences dialog where you can set or add new library directories to be included. Some of the already-included libraries replace previous 'common' propeller libraries that have been created by Parallax or many of this forum's posters. To use Brett's new libraries, you may need to make some changes to your code (or do the following):


    Specify additional directories for libraries... I keep a single directory on my Mac that contains ALL of the libraries that I use. The PropellerIDE Preferences dialog will allow you to input file paths to your own collection of Spin libraries.

    In this example, I keep all of my Spin libraries in a directory named "PropSpinLibraries". I input the full pathname of the directory into the IDE Preferences "Include" field:
