to allow a "gds read" command to ignore cells in the GDS which already
exist in memory. This allows magic to be "pre-seeded" with specific
views of cells in the GDS. Default is false, which is backwards-
compatble behavior. (2) Changed the behavior of the the way the use
path is written to and read from a .mag file, checking the path prefix
against Tcl variables PDK_PATH, PDKPATH, PDK_ROOT, and PDKROOT, and
replacing any such leading path component with the variable name.
On reading a .mag file, any variable name at the start of the path
that matches a Tcl variable will be substituted.
