It looks like you've put a lot of effort into this.. I don't claim to
understand our Unicode printing support, but I do know our intended
road-map was to rip it out and replace with cairo printing support.

I'm all in favour of committing these patches (if you can confirm they
fix the issue without causing breakage for anything else?), so that:

a) If we don't get round to cairo printing in 1.8.x, we get your fix
b) We have an archive of the "correct" Unicode printing support code
should we wish to split that of as part of a separate gEDA -> Postscript
printing tool which doesn't use cairo.

I would not recommend CustomPCB (aka Silver Circuits) for a 50 board
run.  I've used them before and the individual boards have required too
much attention to imagine using them for 50+.  I got one batch where
most of the vias did not conduct (my board easily exceeded the DRC
requirements).  They were happy to replace my order but they screwed up
the drill sizes for some connectors (which I worked around by mangling
the connectors).  Some of my 8mil traces were barly 3mil wide in places.

I will note that I have ordered from them knowing full well what I'll get
for the price, but for qty 50 I'd want more "plug and play".  I would never
use them for a PCB going in a kit!

Then it's certainly do-able. The price from custompcb.com for those

PCB Cart. I've used them a couple of times, good service, good quality 
boards. There's an online quote form you can use to find out how much, 
but based on 160mm x 30mm (which IIRC was your board size) the grand 
total works out at $3/board assuming 2 layers.

What board size ?

Try:

http://custompcb.com/

They are very cheap and have a quick online quote page.

For 50 boards 4 inch by 4 inch double sided PTH they quote $75 setup
and $3.38 per board.

Shipping to Australia is $10, not sure for other locations.

I've had one lot of boards fabbed there.  The registration of holes
was a bit rough, but not enough to cause me any problems so far.

gEDA-user: UTF-8 printing in gschem

2011-02-16 Thread Vladimir Zhbanov
Hello, all.

I'm a Debian user and a long time I was using outdated gEDA/gaf versions and
even in 2008 was fighting against vector fonts. When I realized that there
already are postscript fonts, I started fighting against them :).
An issue with them is that in postscript output some cyrillic and maybe
others symbols are missing. I was hoping anyone would solve this problem.
Then I was hoping anyone would write about its existence. I'm tired to hope.

It seems to be changes in gEDA/gaf 1.8 for Unicode support. I don't know
exactly. Intentions maybe. I don't know where to look at. Whose repository
is better. How to figure it out. Main git repository has no changes for
Unicode support. I haven't found anything.

I wrote three patches. Probably they're provided too late. Indeed... They're
pretty simple: sorting out and deleting of unnecessary lines. It solves my
problems with printing today. Maybe it will be useful for someone...

Launchpad bug #720218.
Developers, look at it, please.

DJ, I have been working with computers a lot longer than you (I was getting 
paid to do compiler maintenance when you were a small child), and I believe I 
have much wider experience with them than you. I use the term "refactoring" in 
the sense that other computer professionals I have known use it. Apparently it 
means something different to you. I don't care. As an old Multics user, I agree 
with Stephan: I want results in the Unix style, not in the Multics style.

In the end, I do not care how you call what is being done, as long as
the results are more like Unix, and less like Multics :-)

Way, way too narrow. Refactoring can dramatically increase the power at the 
users' fingertips. Consider a favorite Brian Kernighan example. Take the 
Multics command:

how_many_users

In Unix, refactor it into:

who | wc -l

Now, you've given the user much more power with fewer commands. For example,

ls | wc -l

counts files, something I recall there was no command for in Multics. 

The large suite of inflexible, specialized commands in Multics collapsed into a 
much smaller set of commands that were specialized in one sense (what 
abstraction was served) but generalized in another (what end was served) in 
Unix. This put a lot more power in users' hands: many things that would have 
required a page of tricky PL/I code in Multics became simple shell one-liners 
in Unix. It was much easier to master and remember the smaller, but more 
powerful, set of Unix commands.

Functionality emerges naturally from good factoring. Without good factoring, 
functionality requires a large number of complex "features" that are difficult 
to remember and often don't play well with each other.

Re: gEDA-user: Strange resistor footprints

2011-02-16 Thread DJ Delorie

A couple things to consider...

If you're using the stock 0603 footprint, just remove the ".fp"

You can disable the M4 macro libraries and just use the file-based
libraries (skip-m4 yes or --skip-m4)

Try using PCB's File->Import instead of gsch2pcb, it handles footprint
names differently.

   It is definitely happening when I try to use a newlib footprint.  I

   The syntax being generated by gsch2pcb is very different.  I can't see
