There are a couple of other interesting links on this
site which perhaps I should have pointed out. They do
seem to be looking for more EDA tools, and vendors to
support. In fact, Protel99 does appear in the list of
tools on the request_new_tool page.

I also had the thought that if it is, as you say, "a huge database of
parts", maybe someone (here or at Protel?) might be able to write a
native Protel server to more directly talk with/to them?

AuRL> But here is the truly interesting thing: part of the eCapture system is
AuRL> what they call ActivePart. They have a huge database of parts with assigned
AuRL> symbols which one can search and access. Since these symbols are
AuRL> translatable into Protel, this is a source of parts for us that may not
AuRL> have been prepared yet by Protel. The mfr. list was truly impressive, and
AuRL> they have a procedure for requesting new parts (you have to provide a URL
AuRL> with part data).
