Why are you all looking for an algorithm? Since pcb warns, it _already_ found the short. So the algorithm is already in place and is working fine. The problem here seems to be that the warning message is less-than-optimal. The warning message should also include the exact location of the (already) found error. _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list geda-user@moria.seul.org http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
