What matters is the underlying abstractions. Gschem constructs schematics by composition of a few elementary kinds of objects with simple properties. Pcb constructs layouts by concatenation of complicated objects with odd properties that interact in complicated ways. I am not sure about that partially because I am more interested in how to shove something else in than rework what is there. This is probably not the best plan but the nicer migratory strategies have been tried and failed. To a point I could see an argument to be made that gschem and PCB have different goals and the more convoluted goal of PCB leads to more convoluted objects. I am working on my concept of what I would like it to look like in broad form and will share with the group when I have a complete concept. >> >>> John Doty Noqsi Aerospace, Ltd. >>> http://www.noqsi.com/ >>> jpd AT noqsi DOT com >>> >>> >>> >> >> >> >> -- >> Home >> http://evanfoss.googlepages.com/ >> Work >> http://forge.abcd.harvard.edu/gf/project/epl_engineering/wiki/ >> > > John Doty Noqsi Aerospace, Ltd. > http://www.noqsi.com/ > jpd AT noqsi DOT com > > > -- Home http://evanfoss.googlepages.com/ Work http://forge.abcd.harvard.edu/gf/project/epl_engineering/wiki/
