I think all I need to do is make the spacing between the pins be 500 mils rather then 300, which if I'm right I can just do with awk (change the -15000 to -25000 and the 15000 to 25000) other then that the datasheet looks the same (eg 0.1" grid, 1mm hole) -Seth _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
