I missed homelib.txt. Will update then.

The way I used it was:

m4 <circuit_macro files> my_file.m4 > my_file.pic
dpic <flag> my_file.pic > my_file.<format>

Cirkuit seems to download circuit_macros and dpic itself, so I'm packaging them
properly. I was going to get Cirkuit to use the system copy after they've been
reviewed.

dpic is also under review. Bug #530755 .

Can do.

Odd. They definitely do not have them with +x permissions when extracted from
the tarball.
