- <h1>Logisim libraries</h1>
- <p>Every Logisim project is automatically a library that can be loaded
- into other Logisim projects: Just save it into a file and then load
- the library within another project. All of the circuits defined in the
- first project will then be available as subcircuits for the second.
- This feature allows you to reuse common components across projects
- and to share favorite components with your friends (or students).</p>
- <p>Each project has a designated "main circuit," which can be changed
- to refer to the current circuit via the Set As Main Circuit option
- in the Project menu. The <em>only</em> significance of this is that
- the main circuit is the one that is displayed when you first open
- the project. The default name of the circuit in a newly created file
- ("main") has no significance at all, and you can feel free to delete
- or rename that circuit.</p>
- <p>With a loaded Logisim library, you are allowed to view circuits and
- manipulate their states, but Logisim will prevent you from altering
- the circuits' design and other data stored within the file.</p>
- <p>If you want to alter a circuit in a loaded Logisim library, then
- you need to open it separately within Logisim. As soon as you save
- it, the other project should automatically load the modified version
- immediately; but if it does not, you can right-click the library
- folder in the explorer pane and select Reload Library.</p>
