It is useful for Microcontrollers with like one hundred pins. The ibis file I looked in have bin number, signal name and model name. Pin number and signal name should be simple. Pin type from model I guess should be possible but require more work.

I have not tried this command but think I used a spread sheet last time. Intermediate format with list of pins together with attributes is probably good but hopefully for most cases output should be piped to djboxsym.

I did not try djboxsym yet, used spread sheet last time. It would however be useful with pins on two or four sides.

I should give these tools a try and maybe python if needed. I however prefer coffe before java.
