I think this should be possible by automatically placing the tag into the part fields when the netlist is generated. I'll try it and let you know. Should we also...

Parts in a KiCad netlist now include fields "SKiDL tag" and "SKiDL Line" that contain the part's assigned tag and the file line where the part was instantiated. Install the...

Absolute file names: * Are longer. * Remain valid even if the netlist file is moved out of the project directory. * Become invalid if the project directory is moved....

This is the next thing I'll be working on.

I did the following: - Added `track_src` attribute to `Circuit` class. Setting to `True` (the default) places tracking info into netlists about where parts are defined. Use `default_circuit.track_src = False`...

I fixed the relative paths so they come from the location of the Python file containing the circuit.

The source file paths are now also controlled by the `track_abs_path` parameter.

I don't pay much attention to my KiCad tools any more, so it's fine if you want to modify this one and send me a PR. I'll check to make...

You should be able to add [fields](https://devbisme.github.io/skidl/#part-fields) to parts and they will get exported to PCBNEW via the netlist file: ``` r = Part("Device", "R") r.fields["MPN"] = "A123456" ``` Let...

Just to be clear: Are you asking for fields in a `.kicad_sym` symbol file to be propagated into a `Part`? Or are you asking for fields in a `.pretty` footprint...
