happens all the time both with a blank page and any other schematics,
but it was my own mistake. Upon receiving your email I got triggered
to check how I build xcircuit, and it turned out that I used
/usr/lib/tclsh85 instead of /usr/lib64/tclsh8.5 as parameter to
./configure. After a quick make clean and recompile, svg works without
aborting.

I realize that the zoom level in xcircuit has implications on the size
of the resulting svg graphics, at least when I open the svg in
inkscape. I don't know if this is a bug or a feature as it will
provide me with a possibility to fit the xcircuit artwork to the size
of an A4 page if needed. On the other side, a batch processing will
not work out well, but that is maybe a totally different topic.

Dashed lines are nicely dashed in svg.

Thanks for implementing the svg export. Saves me a lot of headache
getting things into "approved documentation tools".

What feature do you want to implement next? I have an item on my list
to read entities from VHDL files and generate symbols, but that is
probably just a little rewrite of the spice symbol maker which I can
do myself.
