I've not been able to save footprints from the cut-buffer to a file, and
get the following error in the log window:

Syntax error.  Usage:
SaveTo(Layout|LayoutAs,filename)
SaveTo(AllConnections|AllUnusedPins|ElementConnections,filename)

Dan, DJ, Harry - Does this patch from Christian Riggenbach seem
reasonable (in principle at least)? It seems to fix the issue for me.

(I attach a refreshed version against CVS head with a typo fixed, and
one of the white-space additions removed).

If your busy (but approve the patch - less superfluous white-space
changes), I could apply it to CVS when I get a moment during the week.

Regards,

Peter C.
