================================================================================

+pcbnew:

    First tests about copper zones filled without grid (by polygons)

    Currently for eyes and tests only.

    To select this feature choose No Grid in zone grid filling.

    Work in progress:

    currently : not implemented:

        thermal reliefs (pads are always covered by copper zones).

        texts on copper zones.

        Removing insulated copper islands.

2008-Oct-1 UPDATE Dick Hollenbeck <dick@softplc.com>

================================================================================

+pcbnew

    gen_modules_placefile.cpp: backed out of the "Cu & Cmp" centric terminology

    and moved towards using layer names which are BOARD specific.
