Re: gEDA-user: Is there some kind of gerber to pcb tool?

No backup or autosave or anything. Yes dumb move on my part and I am
now paying the price for it.

Now that I slept on it (and trust me I had a HARD time sleeping), I'm
just going to redo the layout. I don't think I'll take me two weeks
this time because part of it was the floor planning and learning the
ins and outs of pcb.

Also for my next project I wanted to try a more modular design
(seperate layout blocks combined into one). I guess this gives me the
opprotuntiy to try it out now.
