The system wide library search path is subject to be changed by updates
of the distro. If I So, I hesitate to fiddle with it. I usually fix this
with a sym
;Down
Symbol Instance" option. Then you can save-as from there with the
correct symbol file chooser. It will take me a little while to get up
to speed with scheme.

Your scheme way looks much simpler than my way in C that has too much
text processing.

On insert, the mouse cursor is at the origin of the symbol.

That's a good question...
numbers for the
position they had in the schematic. Is there a reason to make these
numbers small near the origin like in the original symbol file?

r to add a 'save symbol
as' function to the right-click menu that operates on selected objects?
Should I try not to change libgeda?

This does not change the symbol but adds attributes to the instance

yes.
Make sure, it is placed at a path, gschem knows about. This can be
modified in gafrc. A common setting is to include the current working
directory:
/--excerpt from
Is it possible to load a symbol into a schematic, change it up, and
save it as another symbol? This would be straight-forward but when you
edit a symbol from a schematic, it loads the original before it was
modified so you have to make all of the modifications again.
Thanks!
