Hi Duncan and all, I'm in the process of coding such a beast (since October 2007) to be used with gtk or from the command line with an ASCII input file.
It's not easy to code the methods for creating a specific footprint [DIP, SO, SOT, etc] and to provide some content such as predefined packages which can be requested by entering "?SOIC127P600X175-8M" and have the program look up the appropriate values. The program still has alpha status (currently version 0.0.9) and can be found here: http://github.com/bert/pcb-fpw/tree/master with GTK >= 2.8.x (Fedora Core 5 with updates, so basically all ancient stuff will do) It will take considerable time to reach the beta version status, since there is a lot to be done :) and I do this for fun and to get/keep my C and GTK coding skills on a certain level. BTW: version 0.0.6 was successfully compiled and run on WinXP/Cygwin :) so there is hope for the M$ users. Any volunteers, support, hints, tips, unmarked bills are welcome :) Kind regards, Bert Timmerman.
