Re: first mail, introducing command line options for eeschema and pcbnew
> eeschema [-h] [-l] [-p <str>] [-plot-bw] [-plot-sheetref] [-b] [-e] [-n] <path to .sch file>
> -h, --help displays help on the command line parameters
> -l, --list-sheets list schematics pages
> -p, --plot=<str> plots the board [ps|svg|dxf]
> -plot-bw, --plot-bw plot: black & white (default: color)
> -plot-sheetref, --plot-sheetref plot: print sheet reference (default: off)
> -b, --bom generate bill of materials (.bom)
> -e, --erc generate electric rules check (.erc) file
> -n, --netlist generate netlist (.net)

> -svg, --svg plots the board in SVG format
> -svg-merge, --svg-merge-layers merge layers into one SVG file
> -svg-edge, --svg-board-edges add board edges to SVG plots
> -pos, --pos create front and back .pos component position files

Hi there, this would be really a great contribution. Command line
utils for Kicad is something I always dreamed!
Please, update your patches to one latest version and I'll surely help
testing them!
