Thanks for the pointer. I am going to modify the wikified tutorial at this specific step in the work-flow. > I'd like to think of that method as being the natural way. It is. The fact, that gsch2pcb uses its own, hard coded set of default values for a new layout is a known weakness. The topic was discussed on this list a few months ago. IIRC, the preferred solution would be to query the values from pcb. Yet, nobody stepped up to put this into code, yet. > I understand you can use these tools in a bunch of > different ways, but a beginner won't know (most likely) any way except > what is taught in the tutorial. ack. ---<)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
