Corrected the skip_module function #14

Closed sabogalc closed 8 months ago

sabogalc commented 8 months ago

The skip_module function previously just searched if a module had the designator REF**. This did not work, but even if it did, it did not account for other miscellaneous modules that should be skipped, such as the NONO_HANA section in the screenshot below. I also faced issues with hold-down tabs that had HD** designators. As such, I rewrote the function to check if a component has zero pads, and if it has no pads, then the component is skipped.

Less importantly, I updated README.md with images of the current version of Glasgow, but if you would like to have this omitted I understand. I'm not very well-versed in the etiquette of pull requests, so if these two changes should have been split into two separate pull requests, please let me know.

Please submit them separately, yes.
