Re: I'm working on a nice thing

 

Eagle converts should like it, it's rather inspired by their component
selector... ;)

It's coming together nicely. Footprint preview/selection won't be done
until probably the end of the week, but for now I just got clickable
datasheet links too :)

Wayne, once I get everything *but* the footprint preview done, would you
be okay with me ->Hide()ing the footprint panel and pushing to master as
it is? Even without that it's an improvement - no more monospace
faux-columns and much friendler data in the info box.
