It may not be an apt analogy, but I'm looking through the other end of 
the telescope at the moment. I noted on my website the existence of the 
Eagle2HAL effort, but it's not the direction I choose to go.

EagleCAD is great for what is often called "schematic capture" but as 
you know it's a manual process. I'd just as soon do the manual work via 
a text editor (like I said, I'm a lexical kind of guy) just as I 
preferred to write scripts to drive CAD systems I used in research at 
work despite their cool GUIs for entering data.

Regards,
Kent
