I just hopped in my time-machine and documented it. (Back-dated to when
we added the feature so it looks like we did it right at the time). (*)

http://wiki.geda-project.org/geda:file_format_spec#path
http://wiki.geda-project.org/geda:file_format_spec#path_data

(And yes... isn't the horrid file format nice and user-editable:

H 3 10 0 0 -1 -1 0 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 5
M 410,240
L 501,200
L 455,295
L 435,265
z

(Surely you know what all those 0's and -1's do, right, when you have
the file open in a text editor?)



NB: Some things on that wiki page are somewhat out of date.. we should
probably mention (for example), that font definitions are no-longer
used.

(We should probably add some way for the user to choose a typeface
though!)


*PS. Sorry for the sarcasm, its late, and catching up reading the mail
on geda-user over these last days has rather worn out my sense of
humour.
