Native support for importers

Hi all,

Out of necessity for doing complicated circuits, I just wrote a tool for converting PCBs designed into a format that PCBmodE can use.

This allows complicated boards to be designed and routed, before being brought into Inkscape for "prettification".

Is there any interest in including this (and other!) importers into the PCBmodE repo and integrating it with the main tool?

Hi @JarrettR. Sorry for the late response! I'm starting to work on the next version of PCBmodE at branch cinco-master so this could be a good time to talk about how to either make 'external' tools integrate with PCBmodE or how we might be able to integrate your tool's functionality into PCBmodE. For Cinco I expect a lot of formatting changes so it would be good to be in touch.
