You are up too late.  But I am sure you are working on something important.

Been doing something like that ${} in fp lib table dialog, but only access to 
environment
variables.

Grep:

    void populateEnvironReadOnlyTable()

This is not for output modification, but for cross platform portability, so you 
can reboot
OSes or move your project to a different computer and still have a valid 
FOOTPRINT LIBRARY
TABLE.


Still looking forward to playing with some kind of lean python expression 
evaluator
wrapper.  Maybe that can be a C++ wrapper class which makes spawning a short 
lived python
interpreter easy.  Like real easy.
