Erich,

If possible, try to get that= added to the wiki! I think that would be quite a useful tool to add to the= geda toolbox.

Ha= ving looked into kicad's symbol format at length, it became clear to me= that gschem's symbol format is far more extensible and flexible, owing= to the ability to associate as many or as few attributes as needed.

Converted symbols may need a litttle fine tuning of = text positions for more exotic designs, but for boring rectangular devices = the converted text is fairly tidy.

I still nee= d to add the command line options for author credit and licence comment=3D = text fields, but other than that, it seems to behave.

Ha= ve fun,

Erich.

Great, thanks for that.

Yes, it's easy to get "distracted" when doing fun thin= gs.
