["Steven A. Falco" <stevenfalco@xxxxxxxxx>]

I decided to try adding the current grid size to the status line of eeschema and the symbol editor, so as to make the N/shift-N hotkeys easier to use.  Below is what I came up with.

Is this something that could be accepted?  I don't know if it fits with the style of the KiCad code - I have mostly written embedded C SW, not C++.
