     1) select all components. You may shut of all layers except silk so
     the
     select tool doesn't catch tracks.
     3) chose
            select -> change_size_of_selected_objects -> Pins_+10_mil
       You may rip off the sub menu at the dashed line to make it stay
       on the screen for convenient repeated application.
     3a) Alternatively, issue an action command: Type a colon to open the
     command line. In the command line type
            ChangeSize(SelectedPins, SIZE)
       Replace SIZE with the desired size, given in 1/100 mil. 1mm = 3937
       If SIZE is prefixed by "-" the size is decreased. If the prefix is
       "+", the size is increased. If there is no sign, it is interpreted
       as an absolute value.
     Refer to the pcb manual for the syntax of the ChangeSize action:
     [2]http://pcb.gpleda.org/pcb-cvs/pcb.html#ChangeSize-Action
     If this helps, I'll add it as a pcb-tip to wiki.
