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
* Replaced find dialog with wxFormBuilder version.
* New find dialog is modeless, supports more advanced search features,
remembers it's last position, size, search history, and search settings,
and implements initial support for replacing.
* Added Shift+F5 hot key to search for next DRC marker. F5 now just
repeats previous search.
* Minor cosmetic enhancements to label edit dialog.
* Remove tab from grid size text printf to fix toolbar grid combobox
display in wxGTK.
* Updated my TODO list items.
* Fixed clipping bug when USE_WX_ZOOM is enabled that causes rats nest
to be drawn incorrectly.
* Fix ambiguous function error in trigo.cpp when building with MSVS.
* Add instructions for building wxWidgets with graphics context
enabled (GDI+) using MinGW/MSYS to COMPILING.txt.
* Initial EESchema find dialog work.
* Set modified flag when using PCBNew global deletion dialog to prevent
closing without warning user of changes.
* Replaced library pin properties dialog with wxFormBuilder version.
* Remove DialogBlocks version of pin properties dialog.
* Add pin properties dialog support code to pin object.
* Create single event handler for displaying pin properties dialog.
* Remove left over DialogBlocks project file for annotate dialog.
* Fixed escape key bug in library editor new component dialog.
* Add GetUnitsLabel() to get human readable units for dialog labels.
* Translate French comments in all modified files.
* Some minor clean up of Doxygen comments.
* Replace component library editor new component dialog using wxFormBuilder.
* Rename component library draw items to conform to current coding standards.
* Add GetWidth() method to component library draw objects.
* Add regular expression key word search capability to component library object.
* Component library objects renamed for improved readability.
* Fields now move when selected in library editor.
* Add copy constructor to all library draw and library component objects.
* Added copy constructor to EDA_BaseStruct.
* Delete base screen in WinEDA_DrawFrame destructor to prevent potential memory leak.
* Fixed memory access bug when replacing and adding a component to library.
* Moved library component block manipulation code into component object.
* Removed all of the global variables used by the library editor main window object.
* The usual code cleaning and refactoring.
* Create static component library methods to manage library list.
* Rename component library, component, and alias objects to more readable name.
* Use pointer to component instead of root name to prevent redundant library searches.
* Add append message helper to message panel that calculates string length.
* Initial ground work for merging library and library document files.
* Improved component library file load error checking.
* Minor component library editor improvements.
Moved all library entry manipulation code scattered throughout EESchema into
the component library object itself. Adding, removing, and searching is now
handled by the library object. This is the precursor to replacing the current
priority queue code.

+eeschema
* commiting my changes to allow multiple instances of a given schematic file within
a hierarchy:
** internally, m_currentScreen has been replaced with m_currentSheet,
which is a list or 'path' of screens. The path of screens is used to
generate
a series of timestamps, which is converted to flat component reference via
a look-up
table in the schematic files.
** this means that m_currentScreen is no longer used -- use GetScreen().
** GetScreen is virtual, as some of the dialogs keep around a WinEDA_BaseScreen
pointer.
** all sub-sheets in a given schematic must have different names to generate a
meaningful netlist.
