Thanks. Looking through the documentation I even found it in the gschem FAQ. However I'm a bit confused about net and netname attributes. You and the net attribute mini-howot suggest that I should specify the net attribute if I want several thing to be in the same net. In other parts of the docu

Philipp, Standard gshem and gnetlist (gsch2pcb) treat buses as a graphical object that doesn't influence the final netlist in anyway. If your design is flat hook up a net segment from a components pin to the bus. Select the net segment and add a net attribute net=D0 for example. Some where else d

I'm creating my first schematic using gschem (previously I schematics were in my head or on paper only and I only used pcb to create the pcb layout). I've drawn lots of nets when I noticed the button for busses. How do I use these (the documentation only states "Buses are very new and there are man
