What is gsymcheck?
</H4>
gsymcheck is the symbol checker for the gEDA/gaf system. Give it a symbol
file and it will go through and verify that the symbol will work in gschem
and friends.<p>
A sampling of the errors identified by gsymcheck:
<UL>
<LI> Having invalid objects inside of a symbol </LI>
<LI> Missing certain required attributes </LI>
<LI> Duplication of certain attributes </LI>
<LI> Incorrect usage of the various attribute </LI>
<LI> Using forbidden, obsolete, or invalid attributes </LI>
</UL>
<p>
gsymcheck does not verify graphical properties of symbols yet.
<p>
All users wishing to submitting symbols should run gsymcheck and
correct all warnings and errors before submitting the symbols. Thank you.

driven tool.
