[Gambas-user] Working with .so library

[Jussi Lahtinen]

For demos application directory is good option. For real projects, things
should be installed as root to the /usr/lib. For demos consisting of
multiple projects, I guess ~/SharedDemoLibrary or similar would be good. I
don't think there is standard to follow for that case.
