OK, Here's a brief how to for page connectors that generate clean netlists, and how to modify any port connector to behave well in a flat, multipage schematic.
The standard gschem library symbols for this are: share/ gEDA/sym/misc/interpage_bidir-1.sym interpage_from-1.sym interpage_to-1.sym They have attributes like: device=interpage_to graphical=1 pinseq=1 pinnumber=1 pages=? and no refdes= at all. To this, we can add a name for pages=? . Add pages=MeasuredTime, for instance. Also add net=MeasuredTime:1 and youwill get connectivity and a netlist that does not show the page connector symbol as a component with a pin one on the netlist. (Not desired). So, to change any schematics made for ports and hierarchy, just delete refdes, add graphical=1, add pages=yournetname When using schematics made with port connectors, I was seeing netlist nets like: MeasuredTime JMP301-3 MeasuredTime-1 R104-2 and not wanting the MeasuredTime-1 to be in the list. The reason is port connectors have attributes refdes=MeasuredTime , no attribute graphical=1. That seems to define it as a component.
