http://www.kicad-pcb.org/display/KICAD/Installing+KiCad When I tried using the KiCad-builder on Windows 7, I had an error during the build that was fixed by changing all of the *.bat files to have windows compatible CR-LF line terminators. They are *NIX formatted by default. Jason On Fri, Mar 27, 2015 at 10:45 AM Zach Archer <[email protected]> wrote: > +1 RSVP for me.
