You probably saw the muddle I got into over the terminology used in PCB, pinnumber and pinname. (Conclusion: pinnumber is the one which matters). It is confusing to have so many similar terms for "nearly" identical things.. especially in the age where "pinnumbers" can be things like "B23". TBH, I would have thought "pinlabel" the best for the visual text, and "pinname" the best for connectivity, but I'm probably only confusing matters more by introducing a counter-factual into an already confusing reality. -- Peter Clifton Electrical Engineering Division, Engineering Department, University of Cambridge, 9, JJ Thomson Avenue, Cambridge CB3 0FA Tel: +44 (0)7729 980173 - (No signal in the lab!) _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list geda-user@moria.seul.org http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
