I don't think there is another way but to use wire jumps to
explicitely tell the reader that there is no connection on a
crossing.
Sorry, you're wrong. The correct thing to do is the same thing
everyone else on the planet is doing. This means, crossed lines
without a dot are not connected,

A wire jump tells the reader _explicitely_ Here are two wires
crossing. Two lines just crossing may trigger the question: Are
these lines connected or not?.
And a junction (circle or dot) doesn't do this???

If you want to tell people that they should use wire jumps in
their schematics,
So, are you volunteering to add crossing jumps to gschem? It should
be a change to the drawing engine only, and a (default off) setting
in the GUI.
I agree that *IF* we want such a thing, it should be done deep in the
draw this net line code in gschem. It would be cool auto have them

Since when is the offering of opinions on a mailing list the same as
stepping up as a volunteer?
It's just a general observation, that (1) the people who want
something are the most likely ones to invest in getting it, (2) if
nobody else wants to do it, it's the *only* way to get it, and (3)

*IF* this were done, we'd need probably need to track crossed
objects as well as connected objects, otherwise the drawing code
would have to check lots of lines for intersection at each redraw.
pcb does this rather efficiently using rtrees to keep track of what's
where. Since most net lines

Why is the 2nd bad? Suppose one of those wires got close but you didnt'
connect that last grid space? Suppose you fax the schematic to someone
and it is hard to tell solder dots or no solder dots? Suppose some
older CAD tool you once used had a bug and didn't always include all 4
nets.

it still bothers me though. It is like the fact that I can't get an
omega symbol after a resistors value.
I just checked in an upper case omega font file into CVS that I've had
sitting around for a while along with the magic to make it work. However,
I haven't confirmed that omegas show

Hi guys,
I have made my first drawing using gEDA. I have some questions about
using gEDA. In the drawing I used an 'arc' to jump over one of the
'traces'. Is the a better way to show that lines are not connected?

The rule is: Lines that cross without a dot are not connected. Lines
that cross with a dot are connected. No arcs are required.
A three-way connection is, obviously, connected.
Note: avoid connecting more than one net at the end of a pin; whether
you get a dot or not - and whether there's a
