The same thing in SVG or postscript is a path around the rounded ends and along the edges of the pad. It's easy to translate from RS-274X to SVG, but not the other way.

I thought basing it on svg with layers defined to be each layer in a layout. This way the svg footprint has some major benefits. Mostly a pre defined standard. Svg with some attributes added. Viewable directly in modern web browsers. Raw svg editors exist. Such as inkscape. More folks would be willing to contribute to an open non tool centric footprint. Converters can be made to and from other formats for exchange, Steve ___ geda-user mailing list geda-user@moria.seul.org http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user

If you buy a ramp and soak thermocouple controller off ebay, and graft the two together, it will work as well as the "IR Reflow Station" box from China. The toaster oven ideally should be a wall of even red heat, rather than a central blob or strip. Levente did some with this, I think. I remember soemone saying they got results putting the thermocouple in contact with a separate piece of copper laminate the same type as they were heating to reflow.

Re: gEDA-user: PCB Shortcut Keys
If you compile pcb by yourself, you will find a file 'refcard.pdf' in /share/doc/pcb. This file gives most of the default-accelerators/shortcuts. If you are using pcb from a repository of your distro, this file will be at /usr/share/doc/pcb/refcard.dvi.gz. There are a very few mistakes in it as you can see in Bug LP:699506 (perhaps someone can push the given patch there???).
