restricted to its original intent, which is to replace the long name
formed from the plane short name and the "minfinity" coordinate.
This avoids issues with conflicting substrate names derived from a
real layer such as pwell. Also, the global substrate node name now
returns the variable name without the "$" in front if the variable
has not been set to anything. This avoids potential syntax errors
in the netlist.
to allow a cell to be flushed with dereferencing (i.e., discard any file
path attached to the cell, and use the search paths to find the cell when
it is reloaded).
occurrence of the label to place the box on. This can be used with
"findlabel -glob <name>" to get a list of labels and determine the
length of the list, and then iterate through each occurrance of the
label in the edit cell.
could cause serious errors on systems that do not auto-zero allocated
memory. Also: Fixed an error introduced by a recent commit to allocate
character memory for efReadLine() which frees the memory before reading
a .res.ext file, causing a crash when using "ext2spice" with the
"extresist on" option.

VERSION
Merged recent changes from master back into bplane, as the efficiency of
bplane for doing extraction on large layouts is unquestionably better.
Fixed the implementation of DBMoveCell() for bplane. Corrected an error
in the bplane version of dbScaleCell() that enumerates cell uses but
does not free the list.

down in the hierarchy when selecting a region or net, but with a
(hopefully very useful) twist: To avoid the problem of ambiguous
labels in subcells, the subcell name hierarchy is generated in
the same way as is done when flattening a cell, with the instance
name prepended. For example, when selecting a net in a standard
cell design, a terminal would highlight the name "OR2X1_1/B"
instead of just "B".
development had been halted since it was first created back in April.
Version 8.2 is now the official development version, with the first
development push to create a Cairo graphics interface.
