I tried several combinations of net and netname attributes without
success, I changed the driver chip to another random chip and still
the 'INPUT' net and 'OUTPUT' net are showing in the netlist file even
after overriding any attribute that has them (i.e. net, netname and
value).

If I understood the wiki pages correctly, then any output port with
net:driver:1, should be connect to any input port with net:drive:1,
but what I got with my limited experience (1 week of gschem and pcb
learning) is that all output ports are connected together, however
input ports are not.

Is there any other documentation I'm missing or a concept that I misunderstood?

Thanks in advance for the help.

Ala'a
