Hi everybody, I'm using geda for the first time, and I plan to buy all my parts from Digi-Key.
I got tired of manually keying in attributes to symbols, so I wrote a script to get the values in a Python dictionary. It's at http://mlug.missouri.edu/~markrages/software/digikey.py/ todo: It should be possible to automatically set the footprint, once I collect the mapping from Digi-Key footprint types to gEDA/pcb footprint types. Also, I can make a script that downloads datasheets for the entire BOM, sorted by uref. todo: For certain parts (R/C/SMT transistor) it should be possible to generate the entire symbol based on Digi-Key's category and footprint information. If I do this, I'll mail the list again. Regards, Mark [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- You think that it is a secret, but it never has been one.
