Do they add meta-data to the symbol, the footprint, or store it elsewhere? We *do* have the option of changing our symbol-footprint library into a symbol-metadata-footprint scheme. Maybe gnetlist is feeling left out, and wants its own library and GUI :-) > Heck, it would also be nice to be able to switch footprints from > within PCB; for example, when changing a board from thru-hole to > SMT. I've considered that too. It means either pcb has to be able to talk to gschem, or gschem and pcb need to share a separate metadata container. I.e. a project would be schematics+metadata+layout, not just schematics+layout. _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list geda-user@moria.seul.org http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
