Re: gEDA-user: PCB Gtk port

Hi all,
Since the things left to do on the PCB gtk port are starting to look
more and more like loose ends, I think it's time to give an update
on its status. Maybe it can now begin to work its way into CVS
and in the meantime I'm giving a tarball link below for anyone
interested in giving it a spin right now.



Awesome ... compiled neatly on my 3 year old Gentoo Linux box with no hassles. I observed the same silk layer select results in silk layer selection but rats line indication as Stuart did, but otherwise seems to work properly after a short play with it.


How strange to see Pcb in Gtk after all these years of Athena, however I just *love* the Gtk file manager with its ability to show the complete pcb file name easily (mine tend to be quite long) and the memorize/remove directories function.

Zoom level 8 looks about real size ?

<feature request>
And just to show that personal preferences differ (sorry Matt :) I prefer the net list in a separate window,
and have a feature request, would it be possible to add a 'deselect' button to that window or make a second click deselect the highlighted item?
</feature request>


Very nice job Bill, more choices for everyone, thank you.

Cheers
Terry
