Thanks.
Now=2C what would be the semantics for a relevant gafrc command to gschem t=
o find the symbol I made? Looking in /usr/share/doc/geda-gaf/examples I fou=
nd:
 cat /usr/share/doc/geda-gaf/examples/RF_Amp/gafrc
(component-library "./sym")
(component-library-search "./sym") So=2C is './sym' equivalent to '~/sym'? =
Do I then append this line to my gafrc file? Is there a way to get it to sh=
ow in the 'Add Components'
dialogue box=2C or would that do it?
Thanks again.
