Yeah.  Altium either does the
comments-with-special-values-only-altium-understands, or it generates four
files.  So then I have to tell my suppliers,
"-RoundHoles-NonPlated.TXT=3D=E9=9D=9E=E7=94=B5=E9=95=80=E5=9C=86=E5=AD=94=
=E3=80=81-RoundHoles-Plated.TXT=3D=E7=94=B5=E9=95=80=E5=9C=86=E5=AD=94=E3=
=80=81-SlotHoles-NonPlated.TXT=3D=E9=9D=9E=E7=94=B5=E9=95=80=E6=A7=BD=E3=80=
=81-SlotHoles-Plated.TXT=3D=E7=94=B5=E9=95=80=E6=A7=BD=E3=80=82",
which is a pain.  I wish Altium did it like everything else: One files for
plated things (holes/slots) and one file for non-plated.  (KiCad and Eagle
both get this right)

I'm considering writing some code to take either of these and generate
plated/non-plated files, and put it in my zip processing pipeline.  Then
I'd never have to worry about it again.

Mitch.
