Every syntax is non-intuitive to somebody. The advantage of Scheme is
that it's so clean and simple you don't need much intuition. These
days you do

PCB's scripting language is, of course, C :-)
Most systems come with a script compiler called "gcc" too.

Back when Ales was architecting the gEDA suite, he make gschem the GUI
program which allowed one to draw a schematic. It only held the
concepts of graphical objects like line, arc, net segment, text, etc.
He created a separate program, gnetlist, which held a

I've been recently working on my own schematic editor, pschem, which
is based on a slightly different circuit design paradigm than gEDA. In
particular, it is built around a design database that abstracts an API
for accessing and manipulating the circuit description. T

Wow - what happened to my last email? OK, here's another attempt . . .
I am working on a program, and it has a side benefit that displays the
schematic hierarchy. Is that something anyone could use?
Here's a sample output:
./ampzilla-base_pg1.sch
./S2/fpga_pg1.sch
./S2/fpga_pg2.sch
./S2/fpga_
I'm working on something, and a side effect of it outputs the schematic
hierarchy. Is this useful to anyone?
The syntax is '.' is the top-most directory of the schematic. '/'
separates the paths and the schematic name. So, for example,
./schematic1.sch is a schematic located at the root of th
