This commit creates a TODO.md file that outlines the plan for extending acadlisp to support generating KiCad symbols and footprints. It breaks down the work into research, symbol export, footprint export, and 3D model support sub-tasks.
This commit implements the first phase of KiCad support: exporting schematic symbols (.kicad_sym). Changes: - Added `DrawEntity::Pin` and `DrawEntity::Property` to the interpreter's drawing model. - Added `kicad-pin` and `kicad-prop` AutoLISP functions. - Created `src/kicad.rs` to handle serialization to KiCad S-expression format. - Updated `src/lib.rs` and `src/main.rs` to handle the new entity types in existing exporters (SVG, JSON, DXF). - Exposed `get_kicad_sym` via the WASM API. - Added unit tests for symbol generation. - Updated TODO.md.
This commit completes the implementation of KiCad export features by adding support for .kicad_mod footprint files. Changes: - Added `DrawEntity::Pad` to represent footprint pads. - Added `kicad-pad` AutoLISP function. - Implemented `to_kicad_mod` in `src/kicad.rs` to generate footprint S-expressions. - Implemented `simulate_layer_command` in the interpreter to allow switching layers via `(command "LAYER" ...)` which is crucial for defining footprint geometry on specific layers (F.SilkS, F.Cu, etc.). - Updated all exporters (DXF, SVG, JSON) to safely handle the new Pad entity (ignoring or simple rendering). - Added unit tests for footprint generation. - Updated TODO.md.

This commit completes the implementation of KiCad export features, adding support for both schematic symbols (.kicad_sym) and footprint modules (.kicad_mod). Key Changes: - **Core Interpreter**: Added `DrawEntity::Pin`, `DrawEntity::Pad`, and `DrawEntity::Property` to represent KiCad-specific primitives. - **Lisp Extensions**: Added `kicad-pin`, `kicad-pad`, and `kicad-prop` AutoLISP functions. Implemented `(command "LAYER" ...)` simulation to allow layer switching (crucial for footprints). - **Export Module**: Created `src/kicad.rs` to serialize entities into KiCad S-expression format. - **API**: Exposed `get_kicad_sym` and `get_kicad_mod` in the Rust/WASM API. - **Existing Exporters**: Updated SVG, DXF, and JSON exporters to safely handle new entities (ignoring them or rendering simple placeholders where appropriate). - **Documentation**: Updated `README.md` with usage examples for KiCad export. - **Tests**: Added comprehensive unit tests in `src/kicad_tests.rs`. - **Roadmap**: Updated `TODO.md` to reflect completed tasks. Tests passed successfully. Temporary files removed.

should allow for defining autolisp files and export them for use in kicad
