One produces proper output for pcb via gnetlist. The other would call gnetlist -g spice-sdb. This seems almost trivial, but does the job. Furthermore, it should be easy to grab by a newbie too. (It is intuitive to "export-to-pcb" if I want to convert a schematics into a pcb). No need for an additional complex piece of software. What else would a project manager be good for? I assume, it should/could foster all those project related files. But then, there is already a host of sophisticated tools called file managers to deal with sets of. Why reinvent the wheel? Let the user use what ever he is comfortable with. Some like the command line, others prefer nautilus, or konqueror, ore even the midnight commander. If I recall protel, their "project manager" included a less than perfect file manager, whose bugs let us curse. A good project manager is not trivial at all. ---<(kaimartin)>--- -- Kai-Martin Knaak http://lilalaser.de/blog _______________________________________________ geda-dev mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-dev
