Well, you asked for potential use cases. Not all conceivable uses may warrant the effort to code. In addition, there may be better ways to achieve the same goal. Symbols in gschem are a bit overloaded. The data base that has been floating on and off the mailing list is meant to better serve the purpose. An alternative would be the notion of "packages" like in other EDA suites. A package would be a container for whatever the designer of a library likes to bundle -- symbols, footprints, documents, notes, simulation models, and whatnot. > I *think* the list of attributes shown in the dialog can be > generated in a way where repeated attributes will appear as: > > documentation <value> Vis N V > documentation (2) <value> Vis N V > documentation (3) <value> Vis N V How would the dialog establish the order? Would the order be significant to some action? If so, there should be a way to manipulate order from the GUI. ---<)kaimartin(>--- -- Kai-Martin Knaak Email: k...@familieknaak.de Öffentlicher PGP-Schlüssel: http://pool.sks-keyservers.net:11371/pks/lookup?search=0x6C0B9F53 _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list geda-user@moria.seul.org http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
