Re: gEDA-user: How to get pcb from gschem?

["Rui Cheang" <ruicheang@hotmail.com>]

Hi,

Thanks, i had read that example, but i still confuse on the process of 
converting to the pcb layout and those output in gschem.  I hope to look at 
the source code or .sch file to be process to the pcb layout, can anyone 
provide to me kindly?
