gEDA-user: stretching components

["richard.bown@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" <richard.bown@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi
I used PCB for the first time today, and I needed to alter the distance 
between pins on a 2 pin through hole device, a large capacitor.
I found in the gEDA section of the component lib that the largest was 
1", 1000 mil.
Is there aa simple  way of dragging the pins a bit further apart, or 
does it need to be created as a new component.

Up to now I've been using cadsoft eagle , but I restricted to 3" x 4" 
boards, but now I have an application that needs something about 3 times 
bigger, hence the use of gEDA and PCB.

Also gerber files are they always in Imperial measures, I was a bit 
suprised to use mm for holes and spacing, and then see the gerbers in 
inches.


Sorry there's going to be a few, what you may consider daft, questions 
from me.
TIA

Best wishes
