I’m trying to make my Eagle time more effective so today I’ve spend some time setting up the environment. Required reading?
On a side note, the Eagle defaults on a MAC OSX or Linux machine live in a hidden file in your home directory. I think it is what the ASSIGN command changes. I used BBEdit to look at it. If you are unsure how to see it, open a new terminal window (it usually dumps into the home directory) and type
ls -a
to see the directory listing of hidden files. I’ve heard good things about the utility Houdini is command line isn’t your thing and you don’t have a text editing application that can already see them. CadSoft warns against editing the .eaglerc file directly, though, especially while Eagle is open. Fair warning.
There will be a little bit more meta tomorrow while I get ready to prep some of the boards for actual production. Whoo hoo!
