I have refactored, cleaned up and extended the translate2geda code
base, to create translate2coralEDA

https://github.com/erichVK5/translate2coralEDA

this uillity now includes the Kicad Module and Symbol converters, as well as

BXL
BSDL
IBIS
Eagle
QUCS
LT-Spice
Symdef
Hershey font
and gerber converters

translate2coralEDA exports to pcb-rnd lihata (.lht) subcircuit format
by default, as this supports padstacks, as well as obround, round,
square, roundrect and octagonal pads, as well as arbitrary padstack
rotation, polygonal copper and line/arc copper features in footprints
(aka subcircuits), and multiple arbitrary text features with arbitrary
rotation, giving essentially lossless conversion from other formats.

The refactor of the schematic symbol exporting parts of the code still
needs a bit more work.

In the near future, users will be able to specify either gEDA PCB (.fp
with unavoidable conversion losses) or pcb-rnd (.lht) output for
footprints, and either gschem or xschem format outputs for symbols.

The addition of some existing SVG path conversion code is also
planned, along with a font converter for converting SVG fonts into
polygon based font files for pcb-rnd.

Regards,

Erich
