are you saying you use doxygen with your VHDL code? I thought doxygen was fairly heavily tied to the C language to the extent that it even had a parser? Did I completely miss something there? I'm asking because I would love to use something like doxygen for documenting some code written in other languages. As far as pcb/gschem, you can certainly extract a BOM from the command line (from either tool in fact). hmm.... I wonder.. if it would make sense to teach one or both of the BOM generators to have a LaTeX option to directly format the output in longtable format. Probably it's best to leave that to a simple external script. Layout pictures can be generated from the command line and the fab drawing layer has the board size in it. You can't currently directly extract the size though. For a board that doesn't use the 'outline' layer, it is a simple awk task to grab that out of the .pcb file but with the outline layer it is a bit more work. What would you envision for the mechanics of how you get this info out and what format would it come out in? Schematics can be generated from the command line. -Dan _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list geda-user@moria.seul.org http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
