Now I'd like to save my ”new” symbol somewhere.
There is not really a reason to save it, because you have only moved the
text around and modified the alignment mark. OK, added a value
attribute. For the current schematic, you can simple

For gschem 1.6.1 there is still one strange thing, which I mentioned
years ago on this list, and still do not really understand:

This is sad news, indeed. :-|
And it will not improve chances of the gEDA project to get accepted for
a Google Summer of Code again!

about finding authors. This is the big benefit of the wikibook

I think the only reason to shrink all symbols is because relation to

There are many

special class, which is always accessed from editing window. Something
like gattrib build in into gschem.
Sorry, I have no solution currently.

You can change the alignment mark of text, select the text, and select
Edit/Edit Text from menu. In the popup window there is an alignment
field.
Not sure if

Does it look nice? It certainly does not on my system.
Am I doing this right at all?
May it be related to your OHM sign? I never use it, and I do not see it
often in professional sheets. It ok if you want

If the refdes of a resistor in the layout reads 3R12 I know
it is on page 3 of my schematics printout.
Some people may read 3R12 as 3.12 OHM, I have seen such notations
somewhere, i.e. 4R7 for 4.7 Ohm.
