You can play with this varible. That will store the components
in your schematic. Perhaps we need the same function for an
arbitrary lib file.


; embed-components string
;
; Determines if the newly placed components are embedded in the schematic 
; or if only the filename is specified and the component is searched for 
; instead.  If it is enabled, then all new components will be embedded 
; othewise they are not embedded.  This can be controlled on the fly during
; runtime with the "Embed Component" checkbox on the select component dialog
; box
;
;(embed-components "enabled")
(embed-components "disabled")

Subject: gEDA-user: easy symbol archive for a design?



Is there a simple way to create an archive library for a schematic in
which all symbols are copied from the original locations to some archive
directory?

If not, are there any suggestions as to where such a tool would fit in?
Ie, a scheme program thats plugged into gschem (this has nice access to
the library search path)?  A standalone sh or awk or perl program (would
need to parse the rc files)?
