Attachment "build-local-symbols-list":

  SYMPATH="/usr/local/share/symbols"
  SYMSUB="personal/"
  cd $SYMPATH ; echo > local-symbols-list ;
  IFS=$'\n'

You could do (in case you don't have a .desc in every directory):

for file in `find dir -name .desc -type f`; do
   d=`dirname $file`
   desc=`cat $file`
...


  for d in `find ./$SYMSUB -type d` ; do
	  desc="`cat $d/.desc`"
	  echo "$d" >> local-symbols-list
	  echo "$desc" >> local-symbols-list
  done

  echo "Coping local-symbols-list to ~/.gEDA folder..."
  cp local-symbols-list  ~/.gEDA/

///////
Attachment "README":

  cd my-symbols-path ; mkdir personal ;
  mv * personal
  cp build-local-symbols-list my-symbols-path

  # for each path in personal:
  echo "One Line Description" > .desc

  ------------------------------------------------------------------
  Examples path:
  capacitors/
	  .desc <--onelinecontent-- "Generic capacitors"
	  cap-1.sym
	  avx/
		  .desc <--onelinecontent- "AVX Capacitors"
		  idc.sym


  become -->

  geda symbols tree+
	  >capacitors Generic capacitors
		  cap-1.sym
	  >avx AVX Capacitors
		  idc.sym

Why do you have a .desc file when you could as easily use the
directory name as the description. E.g. why don't you instead use:

  Examples path:
  Generic\ capacitors/
	  cap-1.sym
	  AVX\ Capacitors/
		  idc.sym

Why use a file (.desc) when you can store it directly in the directory
structure, and if you instead use the directory name as description,
you can use the attached script.

///////

Overall it seems you build a file "local-symbols-list" with the
shell script "build-local-symbols-list", then you process that list
with the scheme script "local-symbols-library.scm".

Wouldn't it be great if you didn't have to run the shell script, if
the scheme script took care about that part? So you could use:

(component-library-add-tree "cvs" "${HOME}/Net/cvs/cvs.gedasymbols.org/www/user")

 or

(component-library-add-tree "personal" "/usr/local/share/symbols")

in your .gEDA/gafrc file, and it swalloped the whole tree.

If you write such a script, I'll be happy to test it.

/Karl Hammar
