Re: gEDA-user: gerbv - not reading format

[Julian <thepurlieu@xxxxxxxxx>]

Frank,
    It looks like the RS274x manual has sloppy code in it.  The G04 code
in line 1 is supposed to end with a "*" at the end of the line to signal
it is finished (see section on G-codes in the manual). gerbv keeps
reading until it finds a *, which made it advance past the FS statement
in the next line. If you add a final "*" to line 1, it should work.
    Maybe we'll look into adding a fix for this problem and let a
carriage return also work to finish out a G code, just to make sure we
handle this type of malformed code.  Thanks for pointing this problem
out.

Cheers,
Julian
