  # 6lib
  
  Manage symlink-based repositories of local Perl6 modules
  
  # Synopsis
  
  ```
  Usage:
    6lib init -- create repository in current working directory
    6lib add [<libs> ...] -- eagerly add libs to repository
    6lib rm [<libs> ...] -- lazily remove libs from repository
    6lib sync -- synchronize repository with indexed libs
    6lib list -- list indexed libs
    6lib prune -- lazily remove missing libs from index
    6lib flush -- delete precompilation cache
    6lib clear -- clear repository but keep index
    6lib clobber -- remove repository
    6lib -C <dir> [<command> ...] -- specify location of target repository
  
  ```
  
  # Example Usage
  
  ```
  perl6 -Ilib -I../other/lib script.p6
  
  # equivalent call using a local repository
  6lib init
  6lib add . ../other
  perl6 -I.6lib script.p6
  
  # equivalent call using a global repository
  export PERL6LIB=$HOME/.6lib
  6lib -C $HOME init
  6lib -C $HOME add . ../other
  perl6 script.p6
  
  ```
  
  # Description
  
  Modules are identified by their absolute paths. For each file in a module's
  `lib` subdirectory, a symbolic link is created in the `.6lib` repository.
  
  Paths to module directories are kept in an index file `.6lib/lib.list`.
  
  ### Warning
  
  When adding source files to a module's `lib` directory, you need to re-add the module or call `6lib sync` afterwards!
  
  # A Note on Windows Usage
  
  The creation of symbolic links in non-administrator mode is only permitted
  if *Developer mode* has been enabled. This can be done in Windows 10 in the
  settings under *Update & security* / *For developers*.
