Hello Alan, I would recommend to write a netlist generator for ktechlab so that the pcb layout can be drawn with "pcb"[1] and use its "export to gerber files"feature. These gerber files can then be opened with gerbv[1]. Maybe if you look at the gnetlist (from gEDA/gaf), it will help you create such a netlist generator. Both pcb and geda are both being actively developed and I believe ktechlab should not rewrite another pcb layout tool, but rather use an existing one.
