[kicad-users] Re: Eagle to KiCAD

[Alain M.]

Hi,

mostly I redraw ALL my libraries and modules, but using some existing 
library. It is so easy that I turned it into a habit...

There are a lot of Eagle converted libraries by Renie (also Brazilian) 
at http://www.reniemarquet.cjb.net/kicad.htm

I am answering to the list, maybe you get more answers from there, 
including Renie ;) that is what the list is for...

 Dear Alain,
 
 I am not sure if your the right person to ask. I just found an atmel atxmega 
 library for eagle and lookn for a solution to convert it to KiCAD. Since you 
 got experience in KiCAD convertions I just ask you how to do that? 
 
 Kind Regards 
 Andrej Georgi

  Is there any solution to this?

 Don't read this as being rude now!
 
 The KiCad module and Library editor is so simple to use that you
don't really 
 need to borrow Eagle Library symbols. Even for complex parts like
the TI 
 cpu's.
 
 I really really recommend you to learn to use the Kicad lib/mod
editor, it's 
 one of the best I've seen for pcb work and I've been doing this
since 1978...
 
 More importantly, if an old geek like me can learn how to use it,
you can too!

 Hi everybody.
 
 Lately I have discovered kicad and I must say I'm impressed.
 For my current project I have designed a big eagle library.
 
 After searching the web for an ulp converter script I have found 
the
 one from dimitri of openhardware.ru. Unfortunately it only converts
 the packages of the eagle library. During the weekend I have added 
some
 more features to the script.
 
 Now it also converts the symbols from the eagle library
 to the kicad library format. There is still a minor bug in text
 positioning but I hope that I will fix that in the next days.
 
 
 Cheers

I will use it if I qualify Kicad for use.  I am very new to Kicad 
but have used Eagle for a while.  I am surprised Cadsoft would let 
you post a ULP to their site that may detract their users to a free 
tool.  :)  Someone could theoretically use this to convert ALL Eagle 
libraries to Kicad libraries.  That's pretty amazing.
