If you wanted to test, its in my branch at http://repo.or.cz/w/geda-gaf/pcjc2.git?a=shortlog;h=toplevel_overhaul2 You'd want to use git to navigate such that the top most commit (patch in stgit) isn't built. That is serious work in progress, and won't build. As it is, the placing code still needs a little worlk I drew the diagrams to help me figure out what the rules for "freeing" objects in the place buffer would be, as the various actions it combines functionality from had different requirements. > You are moving gschem into the realm of "competition" for all the > proprietary tools. Thanks for the compliment! I've always felt gschem and PCB were good competition for the sort of commercial tools I'd used in the past. (Mostly low-medium end packages encountered in school and at Uni). A lot of people have built a really nice suite of software and I'm very grateful for it. Its really to being able to contribute to making it better.
