- | gsch2pcb is a shell script that will automate the process of moving a design from gschem to PCB. It takes the footprint and part value information from your schematic (or set of schematics) and runs them thru the netlister. The end result is a set of files that, in PCB, are the basics of your design: the part footprints, the netlist that shows all of the connections from one part to another, the physical circuit board and whatever other physical information you included in your schematic as graphical objects (like board outlines). | + | gsch2pcb is a frontend to [[gnetlist_ug|gnetlist]] that will automate the process of moving a design from gschem to PCB.
