It would be nice to be able to query symbol attributes to so that the
output of geda-query could be piped into a BOM creation program.

On a similar line I was thinking of doing a schematic server that
could read and write schematic files. You would open a socket to the
server and send commands and receive replies.

Possible commands could be ---

  open uC.sch
  get attrib             # returns a list of all refdes, attribs and values
  get refdes             # returns all refdes
  get attrib R10         # attribs for R10
  get attrib R10 manufacturer manufacturer_part_number # two attribs
  get attrib * manufacturer manufacturer_part_number   # BOM info for
all refdeses
  set attrib U10 manufacturer=ADI manufacturer_part_number=AD590 # change
  close uC.sch

A socket interface would be nice for doing database driven attribute
assignment. I was planning on starting with the query commands and
then adding the set commands.
