 ... what... you don't just draw them by hand? :)

rright.  there's no way i'm doing this layout by hand.  i'm going to
do something that i meant to do a long time ago: investigate how to
use the DCOM interface to PADS.  that *shudder* means installing
python2.7 under windows.

 basically it should be perfectly possible to use the COM interface to
hunt down the tracks by name, and in an *automated* fashion add in
track segments according to the layout you designed, richard.

 what that also means is, if i get it wrong, it's a simple matter of
adjusting the python program to redo it.

 ohh dearie me :)
