I have begun to use gaf for an audio prototyping board for a University course I'm teaching. The gEDA site claims no schematic-to-symbol generator so I rolled my own and am making the first-pass available to start to fill the gap.
I am been using the gEDA Binary Suite 0.0.2 for the moment until I get around to moving my machines to newer releases simultaneously, so the script is only tested on that version of gschem. However it gives satisfactory results on my current collection of project schematic sheets. Included is "usb-codec.sch" and "ingenious-A.sch" with embedded symbols and their corresponding generated symbol. The script puts all input and passive ports on the left side, outputs on the right, and power ports on the top/bottom. The symbol box is sized according to the minimum size to display all port label text without overlapping. Finally, in the archive is the project Makefile as a user example for new-comers. The project isn't in PCB layout stage, nor have I used simulations, so those aspects have not been vetted yet. http://www.whiteaudio.com/proj/sch2sym.tar.gz Comments are welcome, Dan -- SDG www.whiteaudio.com _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
