I remember to have been scratching my head on this, when I did my first BOMs. My students tend to fall into this trap, too -- Even when they were told they'd need an attrib file. The keyword "backtrace" suggests a severe crash had happened. I guess, it is a scheme one-liner to text for existance of the file and issue a newbie friendly message. Or even better, produce a sensible default file on the fly. Peter B? John D.? Can you whip up such a line? ---<)kaimartin(>--- -- Kai-Martin Knaak Email: k...@familieknaak.de http://pool.sks-keyservers.net:11371/pks/lookup?search=0x6C0B9F53 not happy with moderation of geda-user _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list geda-user@moria.seul.org http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
