PureBasic Forums - English

I have found a lot of posts about user libraries. Now I need to know how to and where to properly install user created libraries.

Also, I see some offerings have different files, folders inside say a .zip file. Do I just make a new folder and move all into that folder say at this location? (math for my current system)?:

C:\Program Files\PureBasic\PureLibraries\UserLibraries

It seems I would just put the .lib file into that location and then what about the rest of the files, folders? Where do they go? Does it vary from .lib install to .lib install?

Thank you in advance for your help,

Looks like I might have had success with the self-help.

I found the directions, of all places, over on a Web page off of the lua.org Website. (there is a library out to work PB and LUA together, etc. etc.).

The only thing left and I ventured an educated guess is that the .chm (help) file needs to go where? Well, I put it in the directory that contains all of the other .chm files.

*Crosses fingers*

Yes put chm files in C:\Program Files\PureBasic\help

Thank you Droopy. I noticed there is not a help directory by default, thus my intial placement in the main directory.

I'll adjust that straight away.

Thanks again Droopy.

On the main resource for PB userlibs I have written a short description about the installing of userlibs (at bottom of userlib section). Seems that no one is reading it...

Ah ha! Thanks Andre for pointing me in the right direction.

Also, I really like your Website! Lots of excellent information. The other day I spent a couple hours going through examples you have there. Fantastic resource your Website be! Thanks for sharing such and your time to maintain it.

Here I am... Fred's .pdf manual printed off and in front of me, the PB forums open in one Firefox tab, your Website in another, another forum still in another tab, and still room for some Trance music in my wireless headphones.

Lifes good!
