gEDA-user: Complex footprint creation

[Mike Crowe <mcrowe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

	Hello All!

I am building a footprint for an Omron Ultra-low Profile Dome Key
membrane switch (PN: b3d see www.omron.com/ecb/products/pdf/en-b3d.pdf
 for details) .  The suggested footprint is a solid disk in the middle
and an annular ring around that inner disk.

How do I generate a footprint with complicated geometries (not a square,
round or oval pad) ?  

I started with ElementArc() but quickly realized that it generates a
silkscreen and not a pad. 

Do I need to freehand the object in PCB (as traces) then copy and paste?

Thanks in advance
