I hated it because it was soooo unreadable when I wrote a whole word with the overbar on top... I have just commited the changes into CVS. I used "\_" as the overbar delimiter. Images are always better than words, so I attach a screenshot. PNG output works ok, but the Postscript output doesn't. I hope someone could take a look at it. If I'm not wrong, the changes are needed in the o_text_print function, in libgeda/noweb/o_text_basic.nw. Regards, Carlos
