No particular reason. Fixed.

Should be fixed.

Well it looks like I can not successfully load gTAG.sch with the CVS
version either. It also does not read the gschemrc file and when
providing a gafrc file it fails to find the source and component
library directories.

Interesting. I will try to add that.

I also like this idea of google-like search for symbol. We would have
to tag every symbol and build some kind of index as it is not possible
to load every symbol every time.

I did not like this behavior. This is in part the reason for this
attempt to display all matching symbols. The user can then choose the
symbol he want or refine its search. What do other people think?

Done.

It is a sort of reorg. They belong to gnetlist more than libgeda.
I have updated my branch with your suggestions. Plus there are a few
others changes :
- new functions to save and close page in x_window.nw on the model
of the functions to open page and change current page.
- an alternate autosave feature: each page has its own timeout
source instead of one timeout source for every pages.
- a clean-up of the stroke interface.
- a rewrite of the single attribute editor dialog. And it is now
used by the multiattrib dialog for adding attributes.
Tarballs are here:
