In gschemrc there are lines that control width of nets, pins and buses.
Is  another one to control width of lines in elements now?

Postscript text on print is significantly smaller then the vector text on 
screen. Is it possible to add a scaling factor? Old postscript exporter 
created postscript text a bit bigger than vector text.

BTW. I found a bug in printing routine that under certain circumstances may 
cause a print to be miscentered.
