4 To attempt to emulate the search path facility of the C preprocessor,
5 Inform is compiled with some built-in search paths. For include files,
6 this is (in order of searching):
9 PKGDATA/include local include directory
10 PKGDATA/lib local library directory
11 PKGDATA/VERSION/include system include directory
12 PKGDATA/VERSION/lib system library directory
14 where PKGDATA is the package data prefix (default: /usr/local/share/inform)
15 and VERSION is the Inform version. For modules, the search path is:
18 PKGDATA/lib local library directory
19 PKGDATA/VERSION/lib system library directory
21 This is as if Inform has been given the +include_file and +module_file
22 arguments with the comma-separated lists of directories shown above.
23 However, note that explicitly giving one of these arguments to Inform will
24 override the default setting, not prepend to it, as with the C
