gEDA-user: pcb/gsch2pcb: problem with special characters in pin names

2008-11-14 Thread Sascha Silbe 

Hi!

gsch2pcb (version 1.6) puts the pin names literally into *.cmd, without 
quoting/escaping of special characters. Since ATmega8-1.sym has 
parentheses in pin names (e.g. PB5 (SCK)), pcb (version 20080202) 
cannot correctly parse the file.
What's the proper way to handle special characters in PCB command 
arguments? I already tried quoting with single quotes (') and double 
quotes () as well as escaping with backslash (\).


CU Sascha

pcb currently has no escape mechanism for that.  It would be added to
src/hid/common/actions.c in hid_parse_actions() if you want to work on
it.

You should do something similar in res_parse.y also, if you do.

For pins with more than two functions Atmel uses the forward slash
(within the parenthesis)
to separate pin functions. For multiple pin functions I use the
forward slash to separate
each function.
