pcb_backannotate(1) 1.8.2.20130925 pcb_backannotate(1)NAMEpcb_backannotate - backannotates changes from a PCB annotation file to
schematic
SYNOPSISpcb_backannotate -h|--help
pcb_backannotate -V|--version
pcb_backannotate [options] ecofile.eco infile1.sch [infile2.sch ...]
DESCRIPTION
The pcb_backannotate program reads an engineering change order (ECO)
file generated by the PCB program and backannotates the requested
changes to a gschem schematic or schematics. Refer to the PCB manual
for a complete description of the ECO file format.
OPTIONS-h, --help
prints help message and exits
-n, --nocopy
Leave the modified schematic files in new files whose names are
generated by appending .new to the original file names. The
default is to overwrite the original.
-v, --verbose
operate verbosely
-V, --version
prints version information and exits
EXIT STATUSpcb_backannotate will return 0 if all files processed successfully,
non-zero if the command did not complete successfully.
BUGS
Rather than parsing and processing schematic files directly, this util‐
ity should be rewritten using the gEDA scheme API. This would take
advantage of the existing parsers for the schematic files.
