A single while loop is no massive complexity. Anyway, this part of the patch will go away when the rest of gnetlist gets rid of the depreacheated NETLIST type in favor of standard GList. > But simply let the back end see all the data, and the whole thing > becomes easy without limiting flexibility. The bug this is all about, resides in the front-end. (Internal order of multi-part symbols matters for the output of the front-end). Fixing it in the back-ends would be a work-around at best. The fix would have to be applied to each and every affected back-end. In addition, the necessity to catch this ambiguity would be a trap for developers of future back- ends. ---<(kaimartin)>--- -- Kai-Martin Knaak Öffentlicher PGP-Schlüssel: http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x6C0B9F53 _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
