Hi all,

IMHO this should go into the "geda/gaf: Symbol Creation Guide" Wiki
page, paragraph "Style", sub-paragraph "Text".

I don't see how this can be implemented in a pull-down menu if onl part
of the text needs overbars, for example "\_READ\_/WRITE".

OTOH: It might be useful for newbies to have a "Tip of the day" dialog
at start up: "Did you know ... " etc. like other apps sometimes have,
just to share these kind of tips and tricks.

Configurable in .gafrc of course, so that gschem-and-friends guru's can
choose not to be harassed by this "Tip of the day"-dialog.

Should I file a feature request for this "Tip of the day"-dialog ?

Just my EUR 0.02

Kind regards,

Bert Timmerman.
