There is a small development script that allows you to drop into a

see a list of all available commands. You can also try things live.

Why, i wanted to create some scheme script to be invoked from

i would use gnetlist for that?
For the same reason that you wouldn't want to use pliers as a

Hi folks,
I've just briefly trawled through the patch bug trackers for gaf, and
committed a bunch of sensible-looking patches.
If you've got any patches that haven't yet been dealt with, and you think
should have been, please:

P.S. Not PCB patches. ;-)
I'm going to start trolling through those separately...
