Before I went there, I was skeptical of the value of that sort of "apple polishing". (I tend to stop at slightly ugly but functional.) But after seeing them I changed my mind. It really is pleasing to see a schematic that looks like it came from a professionally published magazine or a manufacturer's data sheet. Symbols like that help gschem's perceived image.
Hopefully it will be a motivation to get filled poly's, or perhaps region fills into gschem in the near future. The ARRL's symbol set would probably be popular: http://www.arrl.org/qst/qs4hd.pdf It's used in all ARRL publications and familiar to a lot of people. A few symbols on the example sheet above are a little old fashioned, but are pretty much deprecated in current ARRL pubs anyway. For my part, I was pickled in ANSI symbols decades ago, so pretty much anything other than ANSI doesn't seem quite right to me :) I keep doodling ideas for an ANSI symbol generator, but it never seems to be a higher priority than just getting on with building stuff.
