I, Mychaela Falconia, am mostly a software girl, but every now and then I make a foray into hardware design out of necessity: if I want to play with a toy that doesn't exist, I have to design and build it myself if I wish to bring it into existence. When I did my first hw design (the OSDCU board for SDSL) and a few very simple boards subsequent to that one, my hw design (EDA) environment ran on a big UNIX machine named ifctfvax. My tool suite (ueda) and the associated part library (ifctf-part-lib) were maintained in a CVS repository on ifctfvax. The present Hg repository is an adaptation of my hw design environment from UNIX to Linux; it has been created for the following two reasons: 1. Due to a downturn in my personal life circumstances, I had to shut ifctfvax down, and it may be a while before I can power it back up. 2. My current board design projects are part of the FreeCalypso libre phone project (www.freecalypso.org), and I don't expect to have much overlap between the libre phone community and the big old UNIX community - hence I thought it would be a good idea to make my FC hardware designs accessible to those who don't care much for big old UNIX. To use these EDA tools, go into the ueda subdirectory and run 'make' followed by 'make install'. The ifctf-part-lib tree needs to be installed in (copied verbatim to) /usr/local/eda.
