gsymfix(1)                      1.8.2.20130925                      gsymfix(1)

NAME
       gsymfix - automatically fix common issues with gEDA symbols

SYNOPSIS
       gsymfix [ options ] symbol_file

DESCRIPTION
       gsymfix reads a gEDA symbol file and does the following:

       o      prints a warning if there is no pinnumber attribute on a pin;

       o      Renumbers pinseq attributes on all pins, starting with 1;

       o      Adds a pinseq attribute to a pin if none exists;

       o      Adds a pinlabel=n_a attribute to a pin if none exists;

       o      Adds a pintype=io attribute to a pin if none exists;

       o      Adds a numslots=0 attribute to the symbol if none exists;

       o      Adds a device=XXX attribute to the symbol if none exists;

       o      Adds a footprint=XXX attribute to the symbol if none exists.

       The idea here is to fix common cut-and-paste issues and fix up the
       symbol so that it will pass gsymcheck(1) with no errors or warnings.

OPTIONS
       gsymfix accepts the following options:

       --help Displays this help message.

       --verbose
              Enables verbose output.

       --vverbose
              Enables *very* verbose output.

       --version
              Shows the version of this program.
