Okay, I had a look at this. I don't see the potential for a problem, though I think I see the initial cause for concern. Placing OnPgmExit() in OnRun instead of OnInit ensures that it won't be called twice if OnInit fails. However, here is a pseudocode simplification of the wx entry point - th

What about doing it differently altogether? Altium, and AFAIK many other high-end and midrange tools, allow you to tag nets with properties in the schematic editor. We could have a net property for this instead. http://techdocs.altium.com/sites/default/files/wiki_attachments/231656/DiffPairDirec
