Hi Andy, Steve, Dan and all,
Some time ago I gave Dan's transistor symbol generator a try and IMHO
this is the way to go.
For other parts such as opamps, triacs, diodes, caps and resistors this
will work too (the bulk of small parts up to 3 or 4 pins).
For looking up the right part I think we ne

To me, a "heavy symbol" (or, in the parlance of other EDA packages, a
"component") is one that includes foot
What is the deffinition of a heavy symbol? And secondly why put a data
base behind one? I have been pondering this from several levels.
One level is about how heavy large components have become and the tasks
that are used in building a working programed printed circuit board.

Yes, with implementation details that help you check as you go towards building
it.

How?
My initial thought is something that builds a heavy library from a
light one:
Input: light/*.sym
light/*.fp
mapping table:
sym | value | device | pinmap | newsym | other-attrs
fp | value | device | pinmap | newfp | other-attrs
Output: heavy/*.sym
heavy/*.fp
We need t

Part of the reason I ask this is that as I complete my work on a new
library, netlister et al. I am thinking that beyond having a
hierarchical schematic I would like to have symbols that can have files
such as verilog, vhdl spice etc includded and that if the netleister
could translate a schematic

As you'll see, I don't disagree, basically, about the long-term answer.
Are there any shorter-term solutions planned, or is that the realm of a

So I've been fairly happy with these tools (currently using the

little things I've run into, aside from the peculiar behavior that

I see that John has already chimed in, but here's another option:
Please also keep in mind the necessity for proper grounding and RFI

some guidance. (s
I have a FCI 61729 USB-B -- not much mileage on it, though.

I don't see anything wrong with your file. It seems that having a pad
and a pin at the same location confuses the polygon dicer. Ben?

Using my ancient version of PCB (2005) I created a simple PCB by placing
my DIP-28-300 footprint on a component-side polygon. All of the pads cleared
the polygon. When I load the file in my newer version of PCB (20070221)
none of the pads clear the polygon. I have not changed the default config
