Release notes for the gEDA/gaf 20061020 snapshot

   Changes
     _________________________________________________________________

   libgeda/gschem

   libgeda  and gschem no longer use libgdgeda (which was a gEDA specific
       hack to the libgd library). gEDA/gaf now wants to use the original
       GD  library.  (Wojciech  Kazubski  and  Carlos  Nieves  Onega with
       cleanup by others)
     *
     * gEDA/gaf now compiles out of the box on cygwin. (Cesar Strauss)
     * Fixed  bug  #1553544: "New pages inadvertently created when adding
       nets in gschem" (Peter Clifton)
     * New component selection dialog box for gschem. This one is so much
       better  than  the  original  one.  Please  test  it out and submit
       comments to the mailing lists. (Patrick Bernaud)
     * The preview window is inside the file selectors again. The preview
       window has been refactored and improved. (Patrick Bernaud)
     * gschem  now places a title block (or any component the user wants)
       when a new page/window is created. This solves the common complain
       that the initial zoom is way to far out. (Carlos Nieves Onega)
     * Improvements  to  the  new  print  dialog box: Make print settings
       sticky for session. (Peter Brett)
     * Fixed  bug #1527465: Do a zoom extents for all pages when the main
       window is maximized. (Carlos Nieves Onega and others)
     * Fixed  bug  #1565433:  Added  the border in the gdk-pixbuf's image
       output. (Carlos Nieves Onega)
     * New  dialog  for  user  confirmation  before  closing  a page or a
       window.  This  is  also a great improvement over the previous exit
       confirm dialog box. (Patrick Bernaud)
     * Various language translations updated.
     * libgeda's shared library version is now 27:0:0.
     * Many more bug fixes and code cleanups. (various people)

   gnetlist
     * Fixed   PCB  cursor  related  issues  (Peter  Clifton  and  Stuart
       Brorson).
     * Minor cleanup of gnet-PCB backend. (Thien-Thi Nguyen)

   gattrib
     * Made  gattrib throw up GUI window warning user of no components or
       attributes. (Stuart Brorson)
     * File  browsers  in gattrib are now the same ones that gschem uses.
       (Patrick Bernaud)
     * The usual bug fixes and code cleanup. (various)

   docs
     * Updated the wiki snapshot to the latest web wiki version.

   symbols
     * linear/lm311-1.sym:  Removed  the  GND  false  connection  of  the
       symbol.  (Ramakrishnan  Muthukrishnan,  John  Luciani,  and Carlos
       Nieves Onega).
     * Lots of off grid symbols cleaned up. (Werner Hoch)

   gsymcheck
     * Adds  newline that is missing from the "Found Pintype=..." message
       in s_check_pintype() in s_check.c. (Jeff Mallatt and Carlos Nieves
       Onega)
     * gsymcheck  now  counts the number of distinct pinnumbers specified
       in  all  slotdef= attributes. Uses that number, plus the number of
       net=  pins, to compare with the "footprint size" when checking for
       that warning. (Jeff Mallatt and Carlos Nieves Onega).

   utils
     * Applied  patches for the cygwin port. Lots of various improvements
       to  make  gschemdoc more Windows friendly (at least under cygwin).
       (Cesar Strauss, Peter Brett, and Carlos Nieves Onega)
