A file produced by "-g bom" will contain as many lines as there are 
components. Columns are seperated by tab characters. Lines are not sorted.

With "-g bom2" the refdeses of all components with the same value will be 
collected into a single line. columns are seperated by colons (:). 
Different items in the same column are seperated by a komma (,).
See http://geda.seul.org/wiki/geda:faq-attribs?s=bom fo advice on how to 
use bom2

The partslist backends don't read the attrib file. So they will always 
assemble the same tab separated columns. 

partslist1:  will give a line for each and everey component. Lines are 
sorted alphabetically by refdes. 

partslist2: like partslist1, but the lines are sorted by the value of the 
device attribute.

partslist3: assembles all parts with the same value in a single line, 
very much like bom2. Lines are sorted by the value of the device 
attribute. The fourth column reports the number of parts in a line. 
Columns are seperated by the tab character, items by space.
