parse drill file comments for formatting hints #16

Closed mcous closed 8 years ago

mcous commented 9 years ago

As suggested by @TheunisKotze, PCB CAD programs often put comments in drill files that contain necessary processing information that the files' commands lack. The drill parser could parse these comments with patterns from the CAD packages (Eagle, Altium, KiCad, PADS, etc) to better process the files.

Implemented for KiCad files in mcous/gerber-parser. Need to find drill file examples from other CAD packages

Eagle does not appear to add comments. I don't think PADs does either. Drill comments for Altium: mcous/gerber-parser#7
