Still working on getting started with PCBNEW. Coming from an ExpressPCB

I have my design finished and all the footprints associated with symbols

Hi,
Thanks for finding the error?
You're welcome.
The file formats are in the appendices of the main kicad documentation.
No, but you did put me on the trail of the format docs. In my
installation, they're in
/usr/local/kicad/doc/help/file_formats/file_formats.pdf.
Is there any way to move a trace from one layer to another without
having to redraw the trace? This would seem to be a simple thing to do
but for the life of me, I can't figure out how. Even after multiple RTFMs.
While I'm asking questions, is there a faster way to enter NEW trace

Let's try this again. Maybe it didn't go out the first time.

Thanks for the reply. I just figured that if the answer was no, which
is apparently is, someone would have said so.

I'm making the transition from the handholding of ExpressPCB CAD to the
wild and woolly world of KiCad :-) An area where I can see me getting
into trouble very easily is with drill sizes since KiCad allows one to
enter any drill size. Questions:

Anyone know of a schematic symbol for the Atmel AT90PWM-316? Trying to
save a little time before I create it myself. Note: this is not the same
processor as the AT90CAN that IS in the symbol library.
Thanks,

KiCad schematics are strictly hierarchical.
Just place a sheet on the first page. This will create a new .sch
