I've got a raspberry pi and arduino connected over serial port. Everything works, except the Arduino IDE does not have an 'import library' section for adding new libraries.

I can only import libraries that come with the IDE. I want to add more libraries to Arduino IDE on the pi and wanted to know where the libraries folder could be found.

So far I haven't found it anywhere.

Anyone got any experience with it?

Another heads up, running raspbian wheezy.

you can add your libraries in 

/usr/share/arduino/libraries/

then just include them with the include statement

#include <myAwesomeLib.h>

Hope it helps! :)
