Hi all

Thanks everyone who answered the "Cursor line" question! I think I 
kinf of like the idea of optinally groupping GUI settings into a central 
local file somewhere (instead of having each .pcb an own setting file).

I'm still knee deep in the config rewrite. Since some of the configuration 
is coming from the pcb file and I want to maintain compatibility with 
mainline, I have to touch the load/save code (so that it works to/from the 
new internal configuration representation).

Before doing that, I decided to clean up the code a bit which involved 
moving the .pcb (and .fp) file format code into a core plugin. This means 
from the next release, replacable file formats and dynamic loadable file 
format plugins.

If you have a preference for some pcb and/or footprint format, it may be a 
good time to vote for "[fileform]" at

http://igor2.repo.hu/cgi-bin/pcb-rnd-poll.cgi

(or if you want to implement the plugin for loading/saving your favorite 
format, please contact me - the infrastructure to make this easy is there 
now)

Regards,

Igor2
