I'd just like to point out that Bill has reworked datadraw so that you can build the whole tool from source on linux/netbsd/solaris/whatever now. In years past, one complaint was that the datadraw frontend was a windows gui and it made it a bit of a pain for non-windows users. This is no longer an issue. The upshot is datadraw is now a viable option for someone wanting to work on large scale netlist and other eda database manipulator programs. -Dan _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
