Hmm, Python seems popular, but my Python capability is limited to:
1. Import a few things
2. Invoke a few things
3. Declare the job finished

I'd be fine with any language that is imperative by nature.

Another plus for Python. Such a nice language to code in IMHO.

If you give a 1,000,000 monkeys 1,000,000 typewriters, and give them
1,000,000 years to write stuff, one monkey will eventual write a Java
program. The others just produce Perl scripts.

Then SWIG [1] could be used to provide bindings to multiple scripting
languages with relatively low effort.
Of course if we want to embed a scripting language (as we currently
do) then we need to stick to one ch

Hello all,
First of all, I would like to express a huge "thank you" to all the

The "attribute censorship bug" is what I call the problem that given a refdes
that corresponds to multiple symbol instances, gnetlist only looks for
attributes from the first instance it finds, ignoring the rest. One common
place this causes trouble is in footprints for slotted component
