Trying to figure out what $SkinLibDirs does, combining old list messages 
with the existing definition on 
http://pmwiki.org/wiki/PmWiki/LayoutVariables#SkinLibDirs


Is this correct?

An array which, given the server address for a skin, provides the 
corresponding URL. The PmWiki program uses the server address (the key) 
to find the skin.tmpl and skin.php files. The program then produces HTML 
code for the page showing the URL (the value) so the browser can find 
the .css and .gif files. Yes, two ways to describe the same directory.

In pseudocode:
"directory for the skin, in php-speak" => "directory for the skin, in 
browser-speak"

By default $SkinLibDirs is set to:

$SkinLibDirs = array(
   "./pub/skins/\$Skin" => "$PubDirUrl/skins/\$Skin",
   "$FarmD/pub/skins/\$Skin" => "$FarmPubDirUrl/skins/\$Skin");
