RE: gEDA-user: newbie footprint argument Q

["Craig Niederberger" <craigni@xxxxxxx>]

Many, many thanks.  So that's the inner dimension of the space between the
pins across the DIP in inches?  Is inches standard (eek!)?  In other words,
would I need to use cm/mm someday, and how would I enter that as an
argument--or would I just convert to inches?

Again, *many* TIA!

300 mil spacing between the rows of pins.

Run pcb.  Window->Library.  The strings in square brackets are the
names you want.

As for arguments, you really need to read the m4 sources.
