     The <newlibrary> field specifies a name for the changed library
     file. The default is <oldlibrary>. You can specify a full pathname
     with the filename. LIB does not supply a default extension if you
     omit the extension.
 
     LIB never changes the original library; it copies the library and
     makes changes to the copy. (This prevents the loss of your
     original file if you terminate LIB before the session is
     finished.) You can name the new library in one of two ways:
 
        ■ If you specify <newlibrary>, the modified library is stored
          under that name and the original library is preserved under
          its own name.
 
        ■ If you leave the field blank, LIB uses the original library
          name for the new library but makes a backup copy of the
          original library file with the extension .BAK.
 
     When you run LIB, you need enough space on your disk for both the
     original library file and the copy.
