PCB can renumber its elements spatially. :Renumber() or :Renumber(logfile) it will renumber, and generate a was/is log. Then use pcb_backannotate to back annotate that into your gschem schematics. These two bits of functionality were a Halloween trick or treat from 2006. I'll let you decide if they're a trick or a treat ;) -Dan _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list geda-user@moria.seul.org http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
