gEDA-user: Obsolete Pin syntax in pcb-cvs.pdf



In my .pcb file there is
Pin[-27559 0 6500 2800 7100 2755 "2" "2" "edge2,thermal(1)"]
pcb-cvs.pdf says
Pin = "Pin(" X Y Thickness DrillingHole Name PinNumber Flags ")"

That would mean
X=-27559
Y=0
Thickness=6500
DrillingHole=2800
?=7100
?=2755
Name="2"
PinNumber="2"
Flags="edge2,thermal(1)"

What is the meaning of the two excess entries?

I also suggest () to be replaced with []. I appreciate that the new
PDF manual contains the pad specification drawing, drill size table and
centroid chapter which all seem to be new.
