Hi,

I am writing a tool needing Kicad netlist file. I first used native 
netlist file. Jean-Pierre Charras suggested me to use intermediate 
netlist file. It's better for me since it is easy to parse and 
potentially contains more information.
In this kind of file, I am interested in components section and nets 
section. But I am also interested in libraries section and maybe 
libparts section (still not sure).
I have two questions :
- In the files I have generated, libparts and libraries sections are 
empty. Is this a work in progress or do I have a problem on my system 
(Win XP) ?
- Why naming the intermediate file .tmp and not .xml ?

Best regards,
Nicolas
