I just checked in a fix for this.

FYI my ongoing backup script is attached.  Following CVS without a
backup plan is a Bad Thing.

You need something like this:

    sed 's/\(Pad.*\)"\]/\1,square"\]/' < old.pcb > temp.pcb
    sed 's/",square"/"square"/' < temp.pcb > new.pcb

That adds a "square" flag to all pads, then you can re-oval the ones
you want oval.


#!/usr/bin/perl

($s,$m,$h,$dd,$mm,$yy) = localtime;
$yy += 1900;
$mm += 1;

$bu = sprintf("%04d%02d%02d-%02d%02d", $yy, $mm, $dd, $h, $m);

system "cp control.pcb backups/control-$bu.pcb";
