Hi,
I did a code for QFN handling via/thermal pad/solderpaste.
I think inductiveload (on IRC) merged it cleanly with the QFP generator.
I post it here, maybe there are some interesting part in it.

Hi,
there is also a patch for wizard plugins to make the QFN/QFP with
exposed pad and paste pads...
http://www.mail-archive.com/kicad-developers%40lists.launchpad.net/msg15109.html
at the moment has not been committed...

Thanks a lot, found it now!
And I don’t believe it… it even seems to work without any problems
(well, just created the default QFP and changed pads from oval to
rectangular…).
I’ll post a patch for OS X in the next couple of days to make paths
consistently pointing to *only* the one “scripting/plugins” inside
the application bundle where the footprint plugins are delivered
right now.
Regards,
Bernhard

It is not well documented, I guess partly becaue the plugins was never
found on a default installation.
But see http://docs.kicad-pcb.org/en/images/Modedit_top_toolbar.png
this is in the footprint editor.
It is the 7th icon from the left. The chip package with a small paper
on it. Although the icon has changed to a star and a some tools.

See the comments about stdout not being open for python:

Just open a new file to direct stdout to temporarily while you're
debugging/testing:

Thanks for the tip… worked.
I need some help, though:
I changed the paths and I verified that all of the python
wizards/plugins are loaded fine.
All paths are correct, python seems to load the plugins via
__import__ just fine (there seems to be a valid object when doing a
print on it), no other errors.
But, I just don’t find those plugins anywhere in pcbnew… :(
Maybe I am just blind, but where are they supposed to be?
If they should appear in the menu, where are the menu entries created?
I don’t know if related, I did not notice that before:
When opening the Tools menu I always get an OS X wxWidgets
assertion about invalid checked/unchecked menu items which
obviously are created wrong (at least for OS X)… maybe those are
the ones I am missing?
Regards,
Bernhard
