Question was about PCB program, rotating footprints.
If you want to rotate gschem symbols 45 degree or other odd angles, pin
ends will be of the 100 grid multiples, which generally look not really
nice. Maybe we (you) can invent a special rotate command, which at the
same time enlarge or shrinks pin distance by factor sqrt(2) so that pins
horizontal and vertical distance is again a multiple of 100 -- if you
really need that.
