NAME

       gsymfix - automatically fix common issues with gEDA symbols

SYNOPSIS

       gsymfix [ options ] symbol_file

DESCRIPTION

       gsymfix reads a gEDA symbol file and does the following:

       •      prints a warning if there is no pinnumber attribute on a pin;

       •      Renumbers pinseq attributes on all pins, starting with 1;

       •      Adds a pinseq attribute to a pin if none exists;

       •      Adds a pinlabel=n_a attribute to a pin if none exists;

       •      Adds a pintype=io attribute to a pin if none exists;

       •      Adds a numslots=0 attribute to the symbol if none exists;

       •      Adds a device=XXX attribute to the symbol if none exists;

       •      Adds a footprint=XXX attribute to the symbol if none exists.

       The  idea here is to fix common cut-and-paste issues and fix up the symbol so that it will
       pass gsymcheck(1) with no errors or warnings.

OPTIONS

       gsymfix accepts the following options:

       --help Displays this help message.

              Enables verbose output.

       --vverbose
