    15 - Clean up eeschema --plot hack and get it accepted into KiCad mainline 
    16  
    17   Problem: eeschema in KiCad mainline doesn't have a non-interactive way 
    18   to print or plot schematics. Such a capability would be extremely useful 
    19   for automated generation of project summaries and similar. 
    20  
    21   Status: here's a patch that implements an option --plot that does 
    22   roughly what we need. This is used to generate the .ps.gz with the 
    23   gta02-core exploded view: 
    24  
    25   http://svn.openmoko.org/trunk/gta02-core/kicad-patches/eeschema-plot-only-mode.patch 
    26  
    27   The problem with this patch is that it's not quite what the KiCad 
    28   maintainers want. See here for the discussion: 
    29  
    30   http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/kicad-devel/message/2579 
    31  
    32   Known issues: the above hack creates an eeschema session that doesn't 
    33   get properly terminated. So the next time eeschema is started, either 
    34   interactively or with --plot, it will complain that it's already 
    35   running and ask for confirmation. 
    36  
    37  
    38 - Implement a non-interactive plot mode for pcbnew  
    39  
    40   Problem: like the above "eeschema --plot", it would be good to have a 
    41   "pcbnew --plot". Even better would be the ability to adjust some of the 
    42   settings, such as mirroring and the output format, e.g., Postscript or 
    43   Gerber. 
    44  
    45   Status: dabbled a bit with it, but don't really have anything to show.

    222   [ Add description. Also note that some of the checks that are done 
    223     while drawing new traces are missing while moving existing ones. ]

     223    that are done while drawing new traces are only done when trying to 
     224    place existing ones but not while moving them. ]
