Features
--------
* Converts a KiCad netlist file into a ``.kicad_pcb`` file that can be edited with PCBNEW.

History
=======
1.1.2 (2024-02-26)
------------------
* Added FPID setting to part, otherwise only the fp_name and not the fp_lib appears in the final board.
* Added iterator to connect all pads of the same number to a given net. This mimics the behavior of the GUI editor.
* Added Python 3.12 to test environments.
1.1.1 (2023-09-10)
------------------
* `net.get_pins()` is now used when a SKiDL Circuit object is used as the input for generating a PCB.
1.1.0 (2022-08-13)
------------------
* Added `--libraries` command-line option to specify footprint library directories.
1.0.1 (2022-06-30)
------------------
* Fixed incompatibilities with KiCad V6 Python API (pcbnew).
1.0.0 (2021-09-16)
------------------
* Decided this tool was mature to the point it could be called 1.0.0.
0.1.3 (2021-05-19)
------------------
* The parts in the PCB are now given a non-overlapping arrangement
grouped according to their hierarchical nesting.
0.1.2 (2021-05-18)
------------------
* The ``kinet2pcb()`` function will now generate a KiCad PCB file when given
a netlist file name, a PyParsing object, or a SKiDL Circuit object.
* ``kinet2pcb`` can now be installed in the default Python interpreter on
a system and it will look in ``/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages`` to find
the ``pcbnew`` module installed by KiCad. If the ``pcbnew`` module
is not found there, add the correct location to the ``PYTHONPATH``
environment variable.
0.1.1 (2019-03-09)
------------------
* Now runs under Python 2 & 3.
0.1.0 (2019-10-28)
------------------
* First release on PyPI.
