Bug#842211: ITP: eeshow -- Schematics renderer and viewer for KiCad



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

* Package name    : eeshow
  Version         : none, just git
  Upstream Author : Werner Almesberger <werner@almesberger.net>
* URL             : https://neo900.org/stuff/eeshow/
* License         : GPL2
  Programming Lang: C
  Description     : Schematics renderer and viewer for KiCad

Eeshow is a collection of programs that read schematics made by KiCad
Eeschema and can be used as interactive viewer, or as a command-line
tool to convert schematics to PNG, PDF, Postscript, EPS, or FIG.

Eeshow can show the differences between two versions of schematics
sheets and it can retrieve files directly from a git repository.

Eeshow was developed as part of the Neo900 project.

Note: This program is not yet stable and probably not suitable for
the upcoming Debian release. But having it in experimental would be
nice, until it stabilises.

Justification for packaging: Eeplot fills a gap: So far I was not able
to produce a searchable PDF with KiCad, because it always made plotted
lines from text. Eeplot does it right!
