I am currently developing/hacking an image analyzing/transforming tool. The filters therein will be loaded at runtime using dlopen&co. My question is where do \*nix tools usually put plugins (*.so files) when installed? bin/program lib/program/plugins/thisandthat.so maybe? Secondly how do I use it and where do I put it during development without installing it. (this is probably the tricky part) I want to avoid shell-scripts if possible. thanks in regard Ronny
