...tion This commit adds support of "additional library directories" to IDE (supporting File/Examples menu, Sketch/Include Library menu and keywords highlighting), and compilation process (by send additional -libraries options to arduino-builder). Those additional library directories are setup in preferences.txt, using addition_librarydirectories=[/path/1;[/path2[;<etc>]]] option
Hi @facchinm ! Newbie question : you've added this PR to "1.8.8 milestone". Where could I read the meaning of this (in term of review, merge, etc.) ?
It simply means that it will be analyzed before the 1.8.8 release to decide if it's ok to merge or if we need to wait a little bit 🙂
If we want to implement this we should port in the arduino-cli first.

This commit adds support of "additional library directories" to IDE
(supporting File/Examples menu, Sketch/Include Library menu and
keywords highlighting), and compilation process (by sending additional
-libraries options to arduino-builder).
Those additional library directories (one or more) are setup by adding an
option to preferences.txt :
additional_library_directories=/path/to/FreeIMU-Updates;[/mnt/ardether[;etc.]]
Use case : you need to use libs from a (different) git repository staying outside your arduino directory/sketchbook.
Those additional libraries are included as Location.ADDITIONAL.
Modified priorities become Location.SKETCHBOOK > Location.ADDITIONAL > Location.CORE > Location.REFERENCED_CORE > Location.IDE_BUILTIN
