The secret is that the required functionality was only added to xgsch2pcb
recently.
For now, the best bet
Having as my main - and not pleasant - memory of using the geda/PCB
tools half a year ago be the incredibly annoying repetitive typing of
commands (both at the normal CLI, where the really common ones could be
scripted, as well as inside PCB, where... well, I never did, anyway), I
thought I'd tak

Hi,
Has anyone tried or has an opinion on using these new InfraWave™ ovens
for re-flowing solder. Would they heat more evenly? Faster?

If you have unplated holes (i.e. mounting holes), they'll be in there
and NOT in the plated-drill file. However, most fabs charge extra for
unplated holes, if they accept them at all. Most of us change them to
plated holes so it's cheaper to have the boa
You probably already have them. It used to be the case that the
aperture list was a separate file, but PCB includes the aperture list at
the top of each gerber file.
Look at the file, once you get past some header info, about 10 lines in
and you should see some lines that look like this:

Short answer: Don't worry, you are good to go.
History lesson:
In the old days of RS-274D the gerber files contained X,Y, Lamp
on/off/flash, and sele

Robert,
This may be obsolete information since most PCB-makers don't use apertures
any more afaik. These would have been little windows used to shoot light
through to ex

Stencil is probably the silkscreen layer, assuming you can figure out
the other ones are copper and solder mask. For outline, if you don't
