💅 gsymfix(1) — the gEDA symbol glow-up clinic

okay so bestie, welcome to gsymfix from the gEDA gang 🌸 the manual name is gsymfix, version 1.10.2.20201216, and she is here to give your crusty little symbol files a full makeover ✨

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

gsymfix [ options ] symbol_file

🫶 DESCRIPTION 🫶

gsymfix reads a gEDA symbol file and, like, actually does the work for you. Here's the whole to-do list, no cap:

  • prints a warning if there is no pinnumber attribute on a pin;
  • Renumbers pinseq attributes on all pins, starting with 1;
  • Adds a pinseq attribute to a pin if none exists;
  • Adds a pinlabel=n_a attribute to a pin if none exists;
  • Adds a pintype=io attribute to a pin if none exists;
  • Adds a numslots=0 attribute to the symbol if none exists;
  • Adds a device=XXX attribute to the symbol if none exists;
  • Adds a footprint=XXX attribute to the symbol if none exists.

The idea here is to fix common cut-and-paste issues and fix up the symbol so that it will pass gsymcheck(1) with no errors or warnings 💖 literally the goal. clean symbol, zero notes from the checker, main character energy only 👑

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

gsymfix accepts the following options:

  • -h, --help — Displays this help message. baby's first flag 🍼
  • --verbose — Enables verbose output. she's talking now 💬
  • --vverbose — Enables very verbose output. she is talking a LOT, capital-V Very, no chill whatsoever 😭
  • --version — Shows the version of this program. peek the lore ⭐
