Thank you! BTW: If there are complaints about breakage, I have a suggestion: I can write a BOM generator combining the good features of bom & bom2 by Matt Ettus (i.e. configuration of the output spew via a config file) with the good features of partslist* by Miyamoto Takanori (equivalent parts are listed on the same line with a Qnty count, sorting of results). Then, you can revert partslist* back to the original version. That way, people who are using the old versions of partslist* won't find their stuff broken. OTOH, if there is no call for it, I'll just let it slide. We already have 5 BOM generators for gEDA already (!!!), and my philosophy is to not re-invent the wheel when it comes to software. Stuart
