It will work, but maybe you will use the same type of power supply
connection in another project?

I recommend that you create your own footprint for the connection.

Then you will have exact the same results every time, but you only
need to create the footprint one time, and it is very easy to do! :)

Footprints, like all gschem and pcb files, are plain text files. Open
a simple one in your prefered text editor to see how they work. Then
visit:

And in particular read Stuart Brorson's excellent footprint guide.
