* Correct all user strings and comments for the correct capitalization of
application names according to JP. They are KiCad, Pcbnew, CvPcb,
Eeschema, and GerbView.
* Add a note the the user interface policy about the correct capitalization.
* All header files used to create the PCB common library now compile as
stand alone code. This prevents the need to define them in a specific
order to make source code compile properly. It should also now be
possible to relocate the source code to build the common PCB library
to a separate folder.
* Fix grid select box update bug on context menu.
* Fix via size and track width select box update bugs.
* Fix layer pair indicator button update bug.
* Fix auto track width tool bar control enable bug.
* Fix via size and track width select status bug in context menu.
* Fix layer select box and layer control widget select bug when current
layer is removed.
* Add virtual function to notify objects derived from EDA_DRAW_FRAME that
the units setting has changed.
* Coding policy class naming fixes.
* Encapsulate file name member of base screen object.
* Encapsulate associated screen member of schematic sheet object.
* Create add screen method to schematic sheet object to simplify setting
the associated screen.
* Move the change file name code in the schematic sheet object to the edit
sheet method in the schematic editor frame object to eliminate message
dialogs.
* Improve reference counting in schematic screen object.
* Add helper type definitions for changing schematic object storage to C++
containers.
soldermask. Nevertheless, it would be nice to have proper gerbers to
begin with, i.e., gerbers with no silkscreen in soldermaskless areas.
Of course, most of the problem can be taken care of by drawing the
footprints properly. However, sometimes the silkscreen of one
footprint ends up on the pads of another one (think components under a
so-dimm card, for example). The attached patch adds an option to
subtract the soldermask from the silkscreen when doing gerber output.

pcbnew and directs gerber/hpgl etc. output into that directory.
There's a browse button that opens a dialog for browsing. If the
directory does not exist, it is created. Tested in linux, not in
windows. Wxwidgets methods are used for file (name) manipulations, so
things are probably ok in windows, too.

inches and mm, the industry is crazy enough to force us with mixed
design. For example I routinely use imperial units for track size and
clearance, but drilling is strictly a metric issue...
So I added a little parser to recognize a suffix specification in the
unit text boxes... so you can put in things like:
1in (1 inch)
1" (idem)
25th (25 thou)
25mi (25 mils, the same)
6mm (6 mm, obviously)
The rules are: spaces between the number and the unit are accepted, only
the first two letters are significant.
As a bonus, it also recognize the period (.) as a decimal point
substituting it with the correct locale character (there was a wishlist
for it, IIRC). Most useful for number pad fans :D
* Split out application specific command IDs to prevent unnecessary rebuilding.
* Eliminate duplicate menu and tool bar command IDs.
* Split component library editor and viewer definitions to separate header files.
* More component library and document file merge code.
* A bunch of minor string readability and consistency fixes.
* All: remove all remaining occurrences of g_DialogFont and dialog font menu handers.
* All: remove all remaining non-standard fonts and button text colors from common dialogs.
* PCBNew: remove all non-standard fonts and button text colors from dialogs.
* PCBNew: update project library and path dialog to match changes to CVPCB version.
* EESchema: update project library and path dialog to match changes to CVPCB version.
* EESchema: save vertical/horizontal line direction setting between sessions.
