Description

I'm using the MicroPython Editor on Linux. I'd like to have a "lib" folder that is shared between projects.

I can create a "lib" folder under one project, and the Files view will show it with the other files in that project.

But if I add a link to a "lib" folder somewhere else, the Files view does not include that folder.

And, of course, files in the "lib" folder should be copied to the Arduino when the other project files are copied.

Research direction

Locate the Files view code and the path that copies project files to the Arduino. Reproduce the case with a linked lib folder, then verify that the linked folder appears in the Files view and its files are copied with the other project files.
