[Bug-apl] Workspace and wslib? search path

Hello Jürgen,

        The apl.html doc indicates that if environment variable
APL_LIB_ROOT is not defined, the subject search path will be from the
current directory '.' up to the root directory '/' stopping when a
directory containing two directories ’workspaces’ and ’wslib1’ is
found.

        The above does not work on my platform, Fedora 25. For
instance, 'plotsincos.xml' is in ../workspaces relative the current
directory.

        )lib plotsincos

yields

IMPROPER LIBRARY REFERENCE 'plotsincos': No such file or directory

and

        )lib 0 plotsincos

yields

IMPROPER LIBRARY REFERENCE '0': No such file or directory.

Is this a bug or has the feature been removed and the documentation is
out of date.

        A related question is if the feature were to work correctly,
would the )libs command use the feature so its output reflects the
location of the library directory paths that will be used by the )lib
command.  Currently, it does not.

Regards,

Fred
