gEDA-user: Yet another footprint generator available
I just put yet another pcb footprint generator on my homepage, see
http://www.ssalewski.de/SFG.html.en
It is similar to footgen.py of Darrell Harmon.
While making this generator I wrote a short summary of recent pcb
footprint format, available at
http://www.ssalewski.de/PcbFootprintRef.txt
The "edge2" flag is not supported by my generator currently -- I have
never understood the correct use of this flag, and I have not seen any
result if I include it...
I think footprints will work without it, maybe I will modify the program
later to use it.
If someone manages to see a result which these "edge2" flag makes I
would be happy to see a picture of it. I think it should have an effect
for pin- and pad-numbers shown inside pcb program, but I never manage to
see an effect.
Please note: My footprint generator program is nearly untested now.
Currently I have all the footprints I need, so I think I will not do
much testing in the next months myself...
Best wishes
Stefan Salewski
