Q: free software for stripboard design (for Linux)

Im also wondering why you need to design stripboard. To a large extent the design can occur during population. But if youre doing quantity and want to optimise the layout, stripboard is generally not the way to go. No doubt you've got a good reason though.

Or do you mean microwave work? I dont think microwave office is freeware, and dont know of a free one.

Actually, my circuit is not very complex and I could allocate the components on the board in "real time", but I would like some tool which could help me avoiding errors. Just to make it clear, I am not searching for tools such autorouting, but something that, for example, keeps track of thedifferent nets and show them with different coulurs, check that every component has been connected, automatically place "breaks" when needed and update the plan when I move a component.

Right, all too easy to make those mistakes. I would think though that entering it into a puter would take longer than checking it over by eye. I dont use stripboard much these days, but when I do I always check each net after its done.

Maybe there is such software. Lets ask sed too.
