Re: gEDA: Hold off on next release?

[Igor Izyumin <igor-at-NOSPAMmlug_dot_missouri_dot_edu>]

While we are on the topic of makefiles, I'd like to suggest a change.  
Currently, the noweb stuff is run through indent after notangle 
generates the code.  This changes the line numbering and thus totally 
screws up GDB (or any other debugger).  I didn't notice any way to 
switch this off short of hacking the makefile.

Also, I've been looking into fixing the nasty problems which occur when 
zooming while performing an action.  It seems like a lot of the stuff in 
x_event.c and a few other places needs to be changed to use world 
coordinates instead of using screen coordinates like they do now.  I'd 
love to fix the problems and send in a patch, but I would like to check 
if I'm going down the right path before I start changing stuff.  Is my 
understanding correct, or am I missing something?  Any other ideas on 
how this should be done?
