YES PLEASE! A number of people I've spoken to were really confused by
this inconsistency.
I use footprint myself.
Second the vote for consistency, no matter which way it goes.
Personally, I have a slight preference for footprint over module as
well.

Hi Mark,
Thanks for your work, I've not had a chance to look at the merge request.
Generally discussion is always a great idea because it's hard to glean
from a diff what the intended changes are and what the impact is going
to be. I'm at work at the moment so still can't review the diff.

This is fantastic. It is one of the more confusing (and easy to fix!)
things about Kicad. I did a small survey of data sheets when a while ago to
see what they call them. There was some variety but footprint was the most
popular. I can't remember exactly but it was definitely used in more than
50%
Hehe, look at that, its still a disputed name. Well we got to fix it.
I went with footprint because it seemed like alot of newer features
with with that name, the module editor was called the footprint
editor originally in the launcher as well which is what caused me to
really want to fix it(you

This. If there was also an IPC compliant land pattern generator, Kicad
would show up in the search results for people doing Mil/Aero work, which
would be a great market to capture.

This is something I was asked yesterday and I don't know the answer. Is
there a way to tell KiCad to compile for software rendering only, or do we
have a hard dependency on GPUs now?

No problem.
I'm currently working on the eeschema options dialog to improve the template
field names editor so please don't change that at the moment,
Ok, personally I haven't found much issue with the Options dialog.
Tom,
I am completely fine with that answer.
This was also a question from a user who has been struggling with a Mac
build--I asked them what their system is because as far as I know all Macs
that can run an OS that can run KiCad have plenty of GPU cycles left over...

True; I'd buy a copy for the project if it would help. A compliant land
pattern gemerator would be insanely great for Kicad.
I saw the responses above - footprint it is.

Mark,
Did you remove this merge request? I clicked on the link and Launchpad
says it's missing. I notice that you've committed changes to this
branch since the original merge request so I'm not sure if you are still
working on it. What is the status of this branch? Is it ready for review?

Hi Benoît,
I am not sure that it is possible to compile and run eeschema on its own
after the recent kiface architecture change.
What is it that you are trying to do that you want a standalone eeschema?

Hi,
I have just managed to install in Mint 17 with python scripting turned on. I
downloaded python-wxgtk3.0 and python-wxgtk3.0-dev from the ubuntu utopic
(14.10) repositories on the web. Just install by double-clicking them in the
file manager.
John,
I prefer the attached patch. Bazaar doesn't really have a clean way to
merger from mail that I'm aware of so attachments work the best for me.
Thank you for the patch. I committed it along with a few coding policy
fixes in r5171.
Cheers,
Wayne
