Re: gEDA: Page manager with display of hierarchy

[sdb@xxxxxxxxxx (Stuart Brorson)]

Hi Patrick --

The new page manager is a very nice feature!  I like how it looks!  It
will make dealing with hierarchy much easier!  Thank you!

Two questions:

1.  The page manager loads the pages into the list when you open them
up.  It does this with embedded schematics (source=foo.sch) as well as
when you open a symbol.  Is it intentional that the page manager also
deals with symbols?

2.  When I built the new stuff, I found that gattrib failed to
compile, as you said.  You said that that will be addressed soon.  Do
you want to fix it?  I would be very happy if you did, because you
have done such a good job with the other stuff in gEDA/gaf.  OTOH, if
you would prefer that I did it, just let me know.

Thanks!

Stuart
