Hi,

I am creating a symbol and footprint for a tactile switch.
So far I have the symbol which is not finished yet and is like this:

</symbol>

The datasheet for this part can be downloaded from here:
https://eu.mouser.com/datasheet/2/209/MS-100630-1172392.pdf

The symbol will have the 'tactile-switch-4-terminals-no-1.sym' name,
but how to name the footprint for this symbol?

In gSchem editor one can see the preview for switch-pushbutton-no-2.sym
which has footprint named as 'H1x2-op-1'.

What is the logic in this footprint name?

I am reading the
http://wiki.geda-project.org/geda:pcb_footprint_naming_conventions

but can't figure out how to name my footprint.

Any advices will be appreciated!
