Re: gEDA-user: GND and supply for PIC12C5xx

[uwe.hartl@gmx.net]

Thanks a lot for the response. I already started to create my own symbols. I 
figured that I have no chance of incorporating the concept of an star-point 
into the schematic if all parts are connected to the same VDD. (I do not know 
how to translate Sternpunkt into english ... my best guess was star point) So 
I created a part which is named Starpoint and used my own symbol.

Thanks anyway,

Uwe
