I think the Geda and Eagle attempts were the other direction, they attempted to visually create netlists using a gui pallete of comps. ( iirc i tried to read _and_ write hal files ) any 'pretty' in Geda/Eagle is up to the designer (s)he can drag and drop or rearrange as (s)he likes no modifications allowed in the rockhopper output you cant re-arrange the svg to make sense of one knot. your back to edit compile debug (repeat) rockhopper geda eagle are all incomplete from some view tomp tjtr33 ( i wrote the miserable Geda effort :( ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ BPM Camp - Free Virtual Workshop May 6th at 10am PDT/1PM EDT Develop your own process in accordance with the BPMN 2 standard Learn Process modeling best practices with Bonita BPM through live exercises http://www.bonitasoft.com/be-part-of-it/events/bpm-camp-virtual- event?utm_ source=Sourceforge_BPM_Camp_5_6_15&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=VA_SF _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
