We're not talking about attribute values or plain text strings. We're talking about attribute *names* - things that other bits of software need to use as keys for understanding what the values are for. Since they're mostly for other programs to read, a bit more restriction is appropriate. _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list geda-user@moria.seul.org http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
