Re: [PATCH] fix additional usage of "modules" name in pcbnew netlist dialog

 

Yes, I had to change the layer names in text editor for my old boards made
in old version of Kicad (French) to make them readable by the new 2014
builds.
The front and back copper layers where saved as "dessus.cu" and "dessous.cu"
and new kicad wasn't able to understand those.
