This library provides means for customizing, from environment variables, the libraries and
path aliases known by an executable. Many applications of Ciao, including
ciaoc
,
ciaosh
, and
ciao-shell
make use of this library. Note that if an executable is created dynamic, it will try to load its components at startup, before the procedures of this module can be invoked, so in this case all the components should be in standard locations.

Consult the environment variable 'CIAOALIASPATH' and add facts to predicates
library_directory/1
and
file_search_path/2
to define new library paths and
path aliases. The format of 'CIAOALIASPATH' is a sequence of paths or alias assignments separated by colons, an alias assignment is the name of the alias, an '=' and the path represented by that alias (no blanks allowed). For example, given
CIAOALIASPATH=/home/bardo/ciao:contrib=/usr/local/lib/ciao
the predicate will define /home/bardo/ciao as a library path and /usr/local/lib/ciao as the path represented by 'contrib'.
