Yes, I know.

Great.

It seems I can reduce thoose two lines to:

(load "local-symbols-library.scm")

//////

Appearantly, I can load stuff from my .gEDA dir without any special
magic, nice:

  $ tail -1 .gEDA/gafrc
  (load "hello.scm")
  $ cat .gEDA/hello.scm 
  (display "Hello World!\n")
  $ gschem
  Hello World!
  ^C
  $

Even better, if I do:

 (load-scheme-dir (build-path (getenv "HOME") ".gEDA/gafrc.d"))

in my gafrc, gschem will load all my files in ~/.gEDA/gafrc.d.

Adding:

 (component-library-add-tree "cvs" "$HOME/Net/cvs/cvs.gedasymbols.org/www/user")

to my .gafrc didn't do any difference to the library browser, hmm.

Why not make the string look like "prefix/dir/subdir/.../", i.e., in
the example above it could be shown as:

"personal/Generic capacitors"
"personal/Generic capacitors/AVX Capacitors"
