I have been used little bit Kactus2. Nothing serious, just some school work.
And I didn't found that totally repulsive and I could say there was some good
philosophy behind it. IMHO most of the SOC and FPGA design software are
horrible to use.

Anyway adding part and putting something together wasn't that hard, but
I just did something quite simple.

I wish kactus or some other tool could keep my schematics and pcbs in
somehow right track. I have some doodling circuits which I like to just copy
paste and they are spread all over under my ~/ele/ directory and searching
from some idea I once had and finding it again is terrible mess.

Kactus2 can be found from: http://sourceforge.net/projects/kactus2/
