Making a good assembly drawing for hand soldering out of the KiCAD PCBNew

Hi,

A long time ago I wrote a script for making color-coded hand assembly drawings (see attached PDFfreewatch_assy.pdf (205.3 KB) ) from Gerber/BOM files produced by Kicad.

The code is here: https://github.com/twlostow/assygen.

If somebody finds it useful, maybe we’ll integrate it more with Kicad.
