Thanks guys,

That's an awesome script! It would be great to have this as an exporter in
> PCB...

>  I have thought it would be nice to have it as an exporter.  I think I
will use the script some more to see if there is anything i want to
change.  Making an exporter should be pretty easy most of the code /
information is already used in the BOM and Gerber exporters.

The only real problem to figure out is what is the best way to get the
attributes (3D model file name) out of gschem and into PCB.  Right now I am
calling the gnetlist bom back-end with the custom attribs file.  The only
problem is if you already have another attribs file in the directory it
gets overwritten.

I would like to be able to have the import schematic function (which I
really like) suck in other attributes, but I do not know how feasible that
is right now.  I anyone has ideas, I would like to hear them.

I am not sure when I will take up the challenge, it probably depends on how
much I like having the 3D models...

I looks really cool I have not used VRML before, but the more options the
better.  The project that I am using this scripe for I am building all the
sub-components in OpenSCAD, so it the best fit for me.
