I am fine with that documentation.  I am having trouble getting past the vagaries of the GUI.  I can see a folder that contains a DXF in the library browser.  I cannot open that folder or see its contents from the library browser.  "Browser" implies browsing, yes?  Does the "library" layout have to be completely flat...everything all in one folder?  That seems needlessly awkward, but if it's the case, I can cope by using naming conventions.

On a possible related note: before I set the parts library path it was empty.  There's a fair amount of discussion in the wiki and in forum about the "default" library samples.  I don't appear to have those.

PS: I tried to insert an image of a screenshot of the library browser pane, but at least in Safari, forum "Insert Image" doesn't seem to work.
