Not sure what you want to do, but I think I'd
better clarify: The .dim files are _output_ files,
mainly useful for debugging and component dimension checks.

All component dimensions (w/o _any_ exceptions) comes from
the perl code, either hardcoded, tabulated or calculated.
This includes # of pins and the size and
shape of component body, pads, pins, etc.

Which components would you like to create ?
