with gafrc in the project directory it starts off with

<<

Loading schematic

(value=unknown) PCB element for footprint Nano_Xtal_base.fp

with gafrc renamed I as junk the printout start is different.

I'm going to re-draw the schematic.  I suspect my dot.sym file is not up
to standard.  It may be fine in schem but not for the other apps.  Also
when I put ./ in the gafrc file, that gave a different printout.
Between snow storms I may find some time to have another go.

	Also are all the programs backwards and forwards compatible with each
other; ie will the latest gschem work with an older gsch2pcb?  Is there
what Nortel would have called a cil compatible issue lineup?
