The gEDA/gaf suite (this package) provides schematic capture, netlisting, bill of materials generation, and many other features.

The main menus have been completely revamped and new tools added. * New symbol semantics have been introduced: power symbols can use a netname=NET attribute instead of net=NET:1; I/O port symbols can use portname=PORT instead of a refdes=PORT; and subschematic components can define variables via `param=NAME=VALUE' which can be accessed as `$(NAME)' from within the subschematic. * gnetlist has been completely refactored and shows warnings and errors in many cases where it used to silently create a bad netlist. Backends can now be written in Python as well as Scheme. If invoked with the new option `--report-gui' or via PCB, gnetlist shows the messages in a GUI dialog instead of stderr. * The new library "xornstorage", the Python package "gaf", and the accompanying command-line tool "xorn" have been added. These are intended to give a (currently quite minimal) way to access gEDA/gaf functionality from outside of gschem. * The command-line option "--control-fd=stdin|FD" has been added which allows remote-controlling gschem via a plain-text protocol. * gschem supports back-annotation from pcb-rnd. * gschem can optionally use FAM or Gamin to display a notification if a file has changed on disk. Support for mouse gestures is now built into gschem, the dependency on libstroke has been dropped.
