Re: gEDA-user: Multiple symbol gschem components

["Ed & Angie S." <edangies@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks for the program John; I will play with it and see how it performs on 
my schematics. My current design is a simple flat 9 page schematic so I 
suspect it will run fine.

 Has anyone created a program like this that will help with reference 
designator backannotation?  I know there has been discussion on this but I 
can't remember there being a solution.  After place and route and refdes 
renumbering, a simple text based refdes cross reference file could be used 
by a refdes backannotation script to update the schematics to match the 
layout.  I've never done a design where the reference designators didn't get 
reunumbered and doing it manually doesn't sound like fun.  An error free 
method of doing this becomes particularly important when the design needs to 
change a little and the layout has already been renumbered.
