Bob,
My only objection was that your questions seemed a bit of a derail, that's
all, not the content of your posts.

Hi All
My motivation on this list is to help with the testing - particularly
OSX. My hope is to be working with a solid OSX version of KiCad with all
the bells and whistles - one that comes out of the public repository -
and that I can get working without an intimate knowledge of Mac
development.
If needed I can send the infos again, but they should be in the list
archive...
It boils down to: If you do a Linux like "export ...=..." in
console/terminal, then these environment variables *only* will work for
things done in console/terminal. Apart from that it is started via
launch daemon
I'm not sure, Bob. I was trying to make this thread be about a UI change
to the library manager window. However, I'm a little too tired to be a
stickler about it, and I have buy-in from Wayne and no screams of bloody
murder from anyone else, so...

Hi Adam
I'm looking at the fp-lib-tables and their placement. Environment
variables are giving me problems.
What title would you suggest for a new thread?

Nick, that makes sense. If we downloaded a new fp-lib-table.for-pretty
from github, that will break unless the user simultaneously updates their
pretties from github--which is definitely beyond the scope of this.

I guess that only the fp-lib-table.for-github should be fetched from
the internet. The others should be fetched locally, because they are
installed locally. As I see it.

This is only true if you keep a copy of the footprint libraries on your
system and you don't use the GitHub plugin to access them from
https://github.com/KiCad.
That would be useful. However, I don't think you can download arbitrary
files (only pretty footprint libraries) using the GitHub plugin but I
could be wrong.

If I don't do anything, KiCad wants the definition of KISYSMOD as an
environment variable.
The window PCB LIBRARY TABLES shows ${KISYSMOD}/ in front of every
component.
The panel below on the PCB LIBRARY TABLES window shows KISYSMOD as an
undefined environment variable.

That sounds like a good idea to me, but I think it should fall back to
looking in that directory if Github is not available.
I think the UI and most of the code would be the same, so I will start work
tonight...
Thoughts?

Couldn't you pull the preconfigured fp-lib-tables from Github instead of a
local directory? This way, it will be easy for the user to get the latest
and greatest footprints!

As of right now, the preloaded fp-lib-table files are installed in
${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX}/share/kicad/template on Linux and Windows. On
OSX they appear to be installed in
${OSX_BUNDLE_INSTALL_DIR}/${OSX_BUNDLE_SUP_DIR}/template where ever that

This is going to be slick, Wayne. Is there any particular place that seems
decent to put the preconfigured fp-table-libs? In my mind, they're almost
templates...

Do you mean /fp-table-lib? (i.e., on

I really like this idea. The wizard already does a good job explaining
what each type of fp-lib-table entry is.

The new fp-lib-table wizard is great for adding new entries to the current

How does this compare to the new fp lib table wizard?

Hi folks!
I have a question about adding another feature to the fp-lib-tables
manager, which is already pretty crowded and I want to get buy-in before
even attempting a patch.
Background:
Running into another issue with the KiCad Mac experience. Just to recap,
I'm trying for 2 DMGs.
