Some more general approach is needed. Common, canonical forms of netlist =
and BOM could drive patch file generation, and they could be useful for =
other things (as others have noted).

That=92s what I=92m suggesting. Or, more precisely:
A tool for each netlist and BOM format to convert to canonical form.
A tool to make Igor=92s patch file from the differences in the canonical =
files.
