	Hello,

I want to use a microswitch in a SPST configuration,
which has four pins - pins 1 and 2 are permanently connected together,
as well as pins 3 and 4. Pressing the button connects also the 1-2 net
to the 3-4 net. The footprint is probably similar to this:

http://www.gedasymbols.org/user/stefan_tauner/footprints/misc/TYCO_FSMJSM.fp

Now I would like to use a simple 2-pin symbol in my schematics, e.g.
this one, because it looks simpler and it is functionally equivalent:

http://www.gedasymbols.org/user/levente_kovacs/symbols/switch-spst-1.sym

How can I do this in gschem/gsch2pcb? How can I say that one pin
of the switch symbol maps to two pins of the switch footprint?

Thanks,

-Yenya
