Hi Dan, While you're doing heavy symbols please make the "symbols a little bit more heavy by including "author=", "email=", "dist-license=" and "use-license= attributes.
This way we where we could use the for and who to mail in case of minor glitches. Kind regrads, Bert Timmerman. BTW: happy 7.4.7 -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dan McMahill Sent: Wednesday, July 04, 2007 1:43 AM To: gEDA developer mailing list Subject: gEDA-dev: heavy symbol generator Its not fully featured yet and only generates 14 transistors right now, but the attached "heavy" symbol generator I think demonstrates the concept for what I think is the right direction for component (note, I didn't say "symbol") libraries for gschem+pcb. After all, if I put a MMBT3904L in my design, I don't want to have to remember every time that it comes in a SOT23 and to check that the pinout in npn-1.sym matches the SOT-23 pin numbering (hint, it doesn't). One of these days I'll probably produce myself a library of heavy symbols that includes all 5% and 1% resistors in 1206, 0603, and 0402 packages and a whole bunch of other parts like that. This will make the time to capture a schematic and start on layout be much less I think. Maybe this is what people already do and I'm just slow.... -Dan _______________________________________________ geda-dev mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-dev
