Subject:	[geda-user] deleting inherited attributes?
Reply-To:	geda-user AT delorie DOT com

Hi, I've created a new schematic symbol, starting from an existing 
standard one.

I should have deleted its original device= attribute, as it's now 
showing as an inherited attribute. This is not a terrible thing, but if 
this happens again I'd like to know how to remove all inherited stuff, 
as it's pointless at best or confusing at worst. :)

I can see the old device= line if I view the .sym file as text, embedded 
between other lines which I don't know if/how they relate. Not sure what 
to edit.

Advice welcome please. Thanks, Matt.
