For my medium complex projects I minimize the problem by giving the sub sheets simple numbers. In addition, I set the separators to an empty string in ~/.gEDA/gnetlistrc. This produces refdes strings like "5R24", which translates to "resistor number 24 on page 5". My gnetlistrc looks like this: /------------------ (hierarchy-traversal "enabled") (hierarchy-uref-mangle "enabled") (hierarchy-uref-separator "") (hierarchy-netname-mangle "enabled") (hierarchy-netname-separator "") (hierarchy-netattrib-mangle "disabled") (hierarchy-netattrib-separator "/") (unnamed-netname "noname") (debug-options (list 'stack 200000)) (eval-options (list 'stack 200000)) \---------------------- ---<(kaimartin)>--- -- Kai-Martin Knaak tel: +49-511-762-2895 Universität Hannover, Inst. für Quantenoptik fax: +49-511-762-2211 Welfengarten 1, 30167 Hannover http://www.iqo.uni-hannover.de GPG key: http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?search=Knaak+kmk&op=get _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list geda-user@moria.seul.org http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
