  17 <pre class="code">tragesym is a small python script that creates geda symbols out of
  18 structured textfiles.
  19
  20 For creating a symbol you have to edit the sourcefile first.  You can
  21 use the template.src file, which is in /examples/tragesym/ directory.
  22 Some examples are in the examples/tragesym directory too.
  23
  24 For possible footprint names take a look into the ~geda directory
  25 of the PCB program.
  26
  27 usage is:
  28   tragesym &lt;sourcefile&gt; &lt;symbolfile&gt;
  29
  30 After you have translated the sourcefile to the symbolfile you have to
  31 rearrange some pins with gschem, translate the symbol to the origin
  32 and save it in an appropriate symbol directory.  Make the attributes
  33 visible while doing that (edit-&gt;show hidden text) and hide the text
  34 again before saving.
  35
  36 tragesym requires python (versions greater 1.5 should work).
