If the "lock" mechanism is not broken, please do not try to fix it ;-) This is a great opportunity to create all sorts of "Heissenbugs" for not so often used code paths. If it's just semantics then please let this issue remain as it is, that is: in a "locked in place" state. Kind regards, Bert Timmerman. _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list geda-user@moria.seul.org http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
