Unfortunately/fortunately I have time in general but not money. I am a recent EE masters graduate, working as a freelancer on a simple board for a tiny fee. My immediate motivation for scripting support is for this board, but I have now resigned myself to drawing all the tracks manually to meet the deadline. But, the feature I am trying to implement (using scripting) seems essential, so I will endeavour to maintain my motivation to implement it - I want to use scripting to 'clone' tracks/vias of identical blocks .e.g. when designing a multi channel amplifier, so that you can layout one channel, and reference/clone the tracks for the other channels.
also noob aside: When developing Kicad, what are the typical compile times between each edit? I assume that much of the code doesn't need to be recompiled each time one makes an edit to the code, and so it should take much less than the 45min+ it was taking when I tried to build it. My experience with C++ has always been tiny files.
