with gafrc renamed I as junk the printout start is different.

Skipping the m4 processor for pcb footprints
I'm going to re-draw the schematic. I suspect my dot.sym file is not up
to standard. It may be fine in schem but not for the other apps. Also
when I put ./ in the gafrc file, that gave a different printout.
Between snow storms I may find some time to have another go.
Also are all the programs backwards and forwards compatible with each
other; ie will the latest gschem work with an older gsch2pcb? Is there
what Nortel would have called a cil compatible issue lineup?
Regards Ian.
