KiCommand discussion and development - Easy pcbnew command line; 4.07 & 5.1.5/.6

KiCommand has been updated again, this time with a few new commands and even more tests. The tests help find bugs, and serve as examples of usage for KiCommand commands. They also can verify a proper installation and can find minor problems with different versions of KiCAD. Please report any failing tests along with the error messages found.

If you find an error that isn’t revealed in any current tests. Please let me know and I can fix it and add a new test.

The new Tutorial is going smoothly. It will walk you through the basics of KiCommand like how to use the stack, and basic calculations. Start there if you’re new to KiCommand!

Still to come are instructions on how to find and manipulate pcb elements. There is some information there, but it’s not fully organized yet. Stay tuned!
