Schematic editing software for Linux?

Richarius

Hey all. I've recently gone back to learning Linux on my PC. After 24 years of working with Windoze, I've ... had enough. Wink

(Macbook owner since September as well - and VERY happy there.)

Does anyone know of any good & cheap/preferably free, schematic editing software out there, that'll work under Linux? (I'm using the Ubuntu V13.10.)

Thanks for any tips.

(Former ExpressPCB / by hand, schematics, user.)

I'm asking this within the Lunetta sub-forum as: returning to building for the 1st time in 6 months, I've decided to build my 13th Lunetta machine. Smile

Possibly, never mind. Smile

I found gEDA Schematic Editor. I downloaded a version for Ubuntu V13.10 and it's working beautifully so far. Smile

give KICAD a try ! guys from CERN started programming for KICAD; I guess this will boost KICAD to new levels : "push & shove" interactive routing and lot's of new stuff on the way...

If you want to try some traditional unix tools you could use pic, a preprocessor for troff, or schem, which you can find near the bottom of this page:
