There are really no requirements, only options. For each option you need=20 to decide if you want to use that feature or not. For example you=20 installed libmotif-dev, so you will be able to run the lesstif HID (as an= =20 alternative to the gtk2 HID). But most users won't do that, so installing= =20 libmotif is not required. For fungw, you need to decide if you want embedded scripting. We have a=20 pool node about all possible scripting at http://repo.hu/cgi-bin/pool.cgi?cmd=3Dshow&node=3DIscript The ones marked fungw will be affected by your choice. > Can someone point me to a tutorial aimed at a newbie? We have a very incomplete user guide at http://repo.hu/cgi-bin/pool.cgi?cmd=3Dshow&node=3DIuguide We have an user manual in the svn, at trunk/doc/user/index.html, also=20 accessible online at http://repo.hu/projects/pcb-rnd/user/index.html This one is more complete, but is not a tutorial, rather a description of= =20 the software. I recommend reading through it, especially the data model=20 part (chapter 2), because using any EDA/CAD is really manipulating data=20 (board data in our case) so it's important to have a good understanding on= =20 that data. Plus you can always ask here or on IRC. HTH, Igor2 --0-763685785-1565405338=:2358--
