I said this back then. Other people cited nondescript technical > reasons. Unless I am mistaken, Vaclav does not want to join nets. He wants gschem to not disconnect pins from nets to which they are already connected to. I have to say, I completely agree. The tendency of gschem to pull net lines into shapes that disconnect from pins is disconnecting (pun intended :-). From a technical point of view, I don't see a fundamental issue. We already have the "kissing mode". Given two directly connected pins stay connected by a net line which is created on the fly if you pull one of the pins away. The behavior Vaclav proposes seems like an extension to this concept. ---<)kaimartin(>--- -- Kai-Martin Knaak tel: +49-511-762-2895 Universität Hannover, Inst. für Quantenoptik fax: +49-511-762-2211 Welfengarten 1, 30167 Hannover http://www.iqo.uni-hannover.de GPG key: http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?search=Knaak+kmk&op=get
