Re: compiling ap/libapl

[enztec]

Hello

From the  make install  the APserver is in /usr/local/bin/APserver along with 
apl and AP100 and AP210

but according to the strace log it never looks for /usr/local/bin/APserver just 
in the current dir

access("./APserver", X_OK)              = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
access("./APs/APserver", X_OK)          = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

i disabled the APserver in the preferences so the message isn't displayed
