gschem dies with the message: "uggg" too many files in s_clib_getfiles when
opening
a library directory in the "add" tool.   If I had been editing a schematic at
the
time, I probably would have lost any unsaved changes.
The directory contains a connector library
with 1584 symbols (and many more to come).   They are all in one directory
because
the add component function does not support subdirectories!!!!  Otherwise, I
would
organize them something like shown below, with about 100-200 files in each
directory.

Of course, I wouldn't need nearly so many files if geda supported permutations
of footprint and visual symbol (double row connectors represented as a single or
double row in schematic) within one symbol definition, let alone parameterized
definitions (scripts with for loops, if statements, etc.).

Of course, I am running an old version, so maybe this has been fixed.
