Hi Torben-

As a general rule= , you can use anything that you can make work!

I b= elieve that the footprints in newlib/ are part of the standard pcb library.=

There are two types of footprints: M4 and "e= lement files". The things that you see in the pcblib file are, I belie= ve, data used for generating the M4 footprints. These are old and we are no= longer encouraging their use. The pcblib.contents file is just an index fo= r pcblib.

In general, if there's a specific fo= otprint you need, and you can't find it, you can ask on the mailing lis= t. It's likely that someone has one that they haven't published tha= t they would be willing to share.

It's backup for unsaved changes. Plain backup filename is
"one.sch~" in this case, i.e. the previously saved version of the=
schematic file is saved under this name when the user invokes
"File =E2=86=92 Save".
