+====== tragesym (symbol generator) README ======
+<code>tragesym is a small python script that creates geda symbols out of
+structured textfiles.
+For creating a symbol you have to edit the sourcefile first.  You can
+use the template.src file, which is in /examples/tragesym/ directory.
+Some examples are in the examples/tragesym directory too.
+For possible footprint names take a look into the ~geda directory
+of the PCB program.
+usage is:
+  tragesym <sourcefile> <symbolfile>
+After you have translated the sourcefile to the symbolfile you have to
+rearrange some pins with gschem, translate the symbol to the origin
+and save it in an appropriate symbol directory.  Make the attributes
+visible while doing that (edit->show hidden text) and hide the text
+again before saving.
+tragesym requires python (versions greater 1.5 should work).
+Comment an questions are welcome.
+Send it to Werner Hoch (werner.ho@gmx.de)
