fxeagle: Eagle Model Files

A file-based translator, converting to nodes, polylines, polygons, arcs and text without column attributes.

Model files contain fully-defined symbology, so the default fx symbology is never used, although eagle symbology (numbered) can be mapped to Fire symbology via a configuration file specified as a program command-line option:

-cfg=<config file>.

Nothing is known about the projection or units of measure of Eagle data. These must be set by the client if required.

Extensions to Standard Commands

init

init

This translator requires Fire to have an eagle atable set up before receiving eim data. The init command does this.

open/close

open | close  <file>

One data file only can be open for selection at a time.

select

This command is not implemented. By default all graphics are selected from the current data source (model file) when a file is opened.
