gEDA-user: gsch2pcb suggestion



I suggest gsch2pcb to not place all components into one place one over
another, but to make bounding box of the schematic and map the
coordinates onto the output PCB space, with optional grid snap
parameter.

This way the user knows where to expect which component and also such
placement makes more sense:
1) the pads/pins are not shorted
2) the placement of components on the schematic is already logical and
things which need to be close on the PCB are often close on the
schematic
(transistor pairs etc.)
