Chapter 12. Libraries
A library is a specialized set of class and method definitions written directly in LISP (as opposed to a class or method that you create with OM’s graphic interface).
Libraries add extra functionality to OM. Many libraries are included with OM on the CD-ROM, and should have been automatically installed simultaneously with it. They are stored in the UserLibrary folderm within the OM folder itself.
You can browse the available libraries in the packages window in the special libraries subpackage (the yellow suitcases). In order to use the library, you must first load it by double-clicking the lower half of the suitcase icon, after which the suitcase opens and you can view the contents. The functions and classes of the suitcases will also become available in the Functions and Classes menu bar when in the patch window.
