I have a personal-global footprint tree (happens to be a copy of my gedasymbols area) that every project points to. In addition, every project has a ./footprints subdir with project-specific footprints in it. I use the new pcb-import code, so I have pcb's footprint path set up to include an absolute path for the global tree, and "."
I.e. ~/.pcb/settings has this line: lib-newlib = /envy/dj/geda/gedasymbols/www/user/dj_delorie/footprints:. Footprint dirs always expect one subdir under the path given, so my list-of-footprint-dirs includes everything under the global directory, and the few subdirs in my project directory, one of which is "footprints". _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
