ChipNDale-Registration

Meta Documentation

All pieces of code implementing features in the kernel part of ChipNDale should be listed here; please tell me any ommissions. This is meta documentation, it basically contains the name of the feature and the place where the truth about that feature is implemented. Most features are implemented or defined in just one place. But specially those features which are not defined completely in one single place will benefit from this meta documentation.

This documentation is no substitute for proper registration; proper registration is absolutely mandatory.

This documentation obviously can not document features added by any non basic ChipNDale tool. Completeness can not be achieved.

@: means feature is old and should not be used in new designs

+: widely defined and used

italic: direct (non-meta) comment. This is not the truth but some hint only.

-->: see also

&: really a private feature; don't use
