Except mine it uses an 'otherPage' attribute to be an off-page connector and it picks the netname up off the wire the connector touches.

Joshua,

It looks like you handle buses with rippers, which mine does not.

The reason for using an off-page connector symbol is largely stylistic -- I like the added clarity and I think it makes the schematic more readable.

Abhigit, the point is that when you look at the schematic, you can know what other page an off page connector is jumping to.

Hello Dave,

I'm not sure when one would need this. gnetlist can netlist multiple
schematics simultaneously, and PCB can load multiple files right? Or
am I missing some fundamental point here?
