Re: Parsing new .kicad_pcb files

 

... Also I am looking at the output of a simple pcb layout.

here is the top 3 lines

(kicad_pcb
  (version 3)
  (host pcbnew "(2013-03-19 BZR 4004)-stable")


I am new to s-expressions: Why are some of the strings surrounded by quotes
"..." and some are not? Do the strings without quotation marks mean
variable or similar?

Thanks
