### NAME

> fp2subc - convert any footprint into a pcb-rnd subcircuit

### SYNPOSIS

> `fp2subc [options] infile [outfile]`

### DESCRIPTION

> fp2subc executes pcb-rnd in batch mode to load a footprint (typically specified in an alien format) and save it as a native pcb-rnd subcircuit. The script is useful for mass-converting old footprint libraries.

> If outfile is not specified, its name is guessed from infile

### OPTIONS

> --lib | infile is not a path but a footprint name that should be searched in the library
> -l | same as --lib
> --pcb-rnd exepath | run exepath for invoking pcb-rnd (default is "pcb-rnd", which depends on $PATH)
> -p exepath | same as --pcb-rnd
> --debugger exepath | insert exepath before pcb-rnd on the command line; useful for running the process e.g. in valgrind
> -d exepath | same as --debugger
> -c key=val | pass on a -c key=val CLI config setting to pcb-rnd; useful for setting up library paths
