Ummmm, yeah.  But I think I am confused now.  the .gattrib.sav file
I am referring to would just hold settings relevant to your gattrib
session, like column widths and the like.  This has nothing to do with
the actual stuff held in the schematic.

One thought, though.  Perhaps the gschem file format needs some way to
hold meta information like the last gschem zoom level, the gattrib
column widths, and the like.  Is that what you mean?  It's an
interesting thought. . . .

1.  No, the attribs must be attached to a component with a refdes.
(Or later a net and a pin).

2.  What kind of project-level attribute are you referring to?  Do you
mean stuff like the above meta-information?
