gEDA-user: gEDA/PCB to Protel Ascii file format

[Hamid <hamid.r1988@xxxxxxxxx>]

   I had a problem with the PCB manufactures, that they only accpet Protel
   PCB format.
   But, since I using from gEDA/PCB and don't like to use protel for
   creating my PCBs, and since searching the web no result for any
   converter beetween this formats, I wrote a python script that convert
   from gEDA/PCB file format to Protel Ascii file format. then I able to
   convert from Ascii file format to bin format in Protel and send this
   file too PCB manufactures!
   Note: This converter only work with gEDA/PCB files that use square
   braces for basic unit and tested on pcb-20091103
   Documention that i used:

   Of course, this script is a quick hack and certainly have many bugs and
   will be happy to test it.
