Hi Dan, It's a good idea to write a manual. One big advantage of gEDA is the possibiliy to change easily the netlist.
If you like, you can use the ideas from my HOWTO. I am not working on it at the moment and have no plan to complete it in the near future. If you need someone to discuss your idees and manual, I would volunteer. Peter Am Samstag, 29.
