You can also use the global gafrc which is under your home directory
in .gEDA. If you add a gafrc there is will apply to all schematics

The R8C family has a standard header for programming, too, but adding
the $2.65 USB chip means you don't need any $150 custom hardware (the
standard debugging/flashing pod) to program the device - just a USB
cable.

Yup, the R8Cs can "flash from within" also. The problem is, this

Sorry for asking a lot here lately but I believe others will hit this

Often power pins must be made visible. For example if you have to filter
