I just checked the file-format spec: http://www.geda.seul.org/wiki/geda:file_format_spec And no, there is no way to make a _net_ an arbitrary width. What you can do, is alter the width and colour of graphical _lines_. As a kludge, (and assuming you've basically finished the schematic), you could draw over the nets you want fat with thick lines. Line colour can be set to "Net" colour (colour index 4), and any thickness you want. See "Edit -> Colour..." and "Edit -> Line width & type..." The only thing you might want to watch is that drawing thicker nets doesn't confuse people into thinking they are buses. A bold net is often used to represent a bus - although perhaps the context, and presence / absence of bus rippers will make that clear. Personally, I tend to use power symbols with net-names, rather than drawing the nets explicitly.
