library description

[sugeng anto]

ask for library description (new tags must be added to current lib format).
This will help people to choose the library.

thanks.

I will keep this in mind as we work on the library table for Pcbnew. There may be a way to work this text into the lib table as an additional column.

thanks. But I mean for both lib (sch and pcb)

I can likely address this only in Pcbnew short term.

There are plans to add a library table support into Eeschema also, but the time to do it
is nowhere in sight, making it mostly out of reach for now.

This has been added to footprint libraries but is still missing from symbol libraries

Now in symbol libraries as well (edited via Preferences > Manage Symbol Libraries).

Great. I'm still not using kicad for a while (no project for now), on next electronic project I will download latest version for sure.
