Hello, I'd like to work with xgsch2pcb, mainly because I lack the skills to write something portable in C and I'm rather short on time. After reading a bit of its code I think I can adapt it to use glade, write a plugin interface and maybe some templates. When done with the plugin interface I'll start to code plugins to interact with simulators and whatever is needed. Also calling refdes_renum when necessary might help. I believe that xgsch2pcb can be a great aid to help people accustomed to other tools in an effortlessly migration. That's what I think can be done. However, I used pcb and gschem for a couple of small projects and I did most of the simulations with qucs, so I lack expertise in working with ngspice / spice together with the gEDA tools and I am not aware of more stuff that can be implemented in xgsch2pcb. Well, let me know what you think. Forgive me if my wording wasn't polite and tell me what I said wrong. Cheers, Adrian. _______________________________________________ geda-dev mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-dev
