[Cirilo Bernardo <cirilo.bernardo@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks for the merge and to everyone who's helped out with the
cross-platform issues.
I've got a new feature branch "kicad-step" with the kicad2step standalone
tool if anyone
feels like playing with it and providing some feedback.  This is the tool
which I plan to
make available as an item in the "Export" menu to give KiCad it's own
built-in MCAD
export.

https://code.launchpad.net/~cirilo-bernardo/kicad/+git/kicad-oce

The long-term plan is to make this tool a genuine plugin, but the API
required for that
is turning out to be quite a big job and is currently on hold due to my
limited free time.

This stand-alone tool makes use of mRoszko's SEXPR parser which is a great
tool
for making third-party tools that can read KiCad PCB files.
