Re: Where to put dll's in starkits

Check
  https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/dlls/dynamic-link-library-search-order
for the standard search path for DLLs on Windows, paragraph
  Standard search order for unpackaged apps

The fact that there are DLLs in bin/ is due to topic 7, search "the
folder from which the app loaded".

BUT: this applies *only* to DLLs which the app requires to run at all
(run-time linker).  Anything you directly 'load' via TCLs [load] command
can be located anywhere in the file system (if thoses DLLs indirectly
require other DLLs, the search path as above kicks in again, and here
I'm not certain whether point 7 also holds for "the folder where the DLL
was loaded from").
