Its a lot of time to make the symbols ( a lot , especially when you hamfist a keyboard like i do ;) you can edit new symbols as you like with the geda tools they have tutorials the idea of using geda for hal is good, but i never was happy with the automatic output (how to handle threads and set params and the draggability without tangle ) if you are satisfied with what you can do with the library so far i can help edit new symbols ( i began that page with a mesa 5i20 servo as a task, rather than 'make 'em all' :) have you used the library? regards tomp ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Get your Android app more play: Bring it to the BlackBerry PlayBook in minutes.
