PCB _has_ a footprint library function (unless you're using an old version!) http://pcjc2.blogspot.com/2008/01/pcb-library-browser.html Just keep a copy of PCB open whilst you're making your schematics, and you're not much more than an alt-tab from finding the right name. _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
