     NAME
            LoadLib -- Explicitly load an Amiga library.

     SYNOPSIS
            LoadLib dev:dir/library-name

     DESCRIPTION

            THIS COMMAND IS NOT NEEDED BY 2.x/3.x. 

            UNDER 1.3 ONLY: This is a new command which is 
        occasionally very useful.  If you should happen to boot 
        from a disk that does not have arp.library in its libs 
        directory you will not be able to use the ARP commands 
        directly.  This is an unusual situation, but it can 
        happen.  LoadLib presents the solution to this problem by 
        allowing you to load the library directly from whatever 
        directory you want.  After a successful LoadLib of 
        arp.library, you may use any ARP command you like.

            Note that you are not confined to loading 
        arp.library, any diskloadable library may be brought into 
        memory in this way, this can help a lot when your 
        bootdisk gets too crowded.

     EXAMPLE
            1. To boot from a disk without arp.library on it, and 
        then insert your boot disk in drive 1, then type:

               LoadLib df1:libs/arp.library

            This will allow you to execute any ARP command.  Note 
        that LoadLib cannot use arp.library, and therefore it is 
        missing some features, such as the advanced argument 
        parsing, that most ARP supplied commands have.

     OTHER
            This command was donated to ARP by William Hawes. The 
        founder of AREXX.
