gEDA-user: How do I get pcb to automatically load my personal pcb-elements directory

2009-04-28 Thread dfro
I am wondering how do I get pcb to automatically load my pcb-elements directory. I can get pcb to find the directory using the projects file and gsch2pcb technique, but I would like 'pcb-elements' to show up in the pcb library window automatically whenever I launch pcb. Any thoughts? Thanks,
