Why is the "-L" options not sufficient? Why is an extra "-R" option pointing to the same directory needed?

I'm really appreciating all of this - I'm new to C.  It all started when I wanted the app wmswallow 'cos I couldn't find it in pkgsrc and needed the functionality to add extra apps to the dock in openbox3.

Thanks

Phil.
