I just added code to use a common text file for settings (instead of relying on ~/.Xdefaults for lesstif, gnome-config for gtk, etc, although those still work too).
Settings are looked for in: $prefix/share/pcb/settings $HOME/.pcb/settings ./pcb.settings There's a :SaveSettings() action, which optionally takes a "local" argument (:SaveSettings(local)). It saves the settings in ~/.pcb/settings (non-local) or ./pcb.settings (local), where settings which still have their built-in value are listed as commented out (so you can see what the settings are, but they won't override new built-in defaults). Also, significantly, the ./pcb.settings file acts like gafrc in that it can override the footprint paths (and other settings) on a per-project basis. _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
