As it turns out Jim didn't have to write a single line of code...;-) Changing the
first line of EzTrax files from PCB FILE 5 to PCB FILE 4 works for Traxmaker
and changing the first line Traxmaker file from PCB FILE 4 to PCB FILE 5 works
for EzTrax. I know it looks backwards....
So I can print Traxmaker files to postscript using the easyedit utility. Best of all
I can move my PCB and parts library to Traxmaker.. I'm even gonna draw my
schematics with it..;-) If you look, you might still be able to find a unbundled
copy of TraxMaker for about $90.00. That's a deal if you a still using EzTrax.
Thanks Jim
