:mod:`rs274x` --- RS-274X file handling
==============================================
.. module:: rs274x
:synopsis: Functions and classes for handling RS-274X files
.. sectionauthor:: Hamilton Kibbe <ham@hamiltonkib.be>
The RS-274X (Gerber) format is the most common format for exporting PCB
artwork. The Specification is published by Ucamco and is available
`here <http://www.ucamco.com/files/downloads/file/81/the_gerber_file_format_specification.pdf>`_.
The :mod:`rs274x` submodule implements classes to read and write
RS-274X files without having to know the precise details of the format.
The :mod:`rs274x` submodule's :func:`read` function serves as a
simple interface for parsing gerber files. The :class:`GerberFile` class
stores all the information contained in a gerber file allowing the file to be
analyzed, modified, and updated. The :class:`GerberParser` class is used in
the background for parsing RS-274X files.
