Many thanks to the following individuals who contributed code/other stuff:

Eric Busta		- For creating and working on gpcb 

Michael Linnemann	- For proposing the multi hot key scheme which is
			  currently in use

Stefan Petersen		- For writing the actual guile code which implements
			  the key remapping (worked almost out of the box!)
			- Pointed out some obsolete stuff in the configure.in
			- Bug fixes and improvements to gschem.scm

Thien-Thi Nguyen 	- Wrote a much better g_read_file()
		     	- A configure.in which handles guile better then 
			  my quick hack
			- Help with the guile key remapping code 
			- Bug fixes and improvements to gschem.scm
			- Patch to gnetlist adding newlines for 
			  interactive mode

Erick Britis Ortiz	- Provided a patch to fix the broken select box and  
Jeff McNeal		  box object

Jeff McNeal		- Provided a patch which adds the lowe level code to
	                  implement transparent zoom/pan when drawing 
			  nets/pins.

Manu Rouat		- For pointing out my inconsistant license headers
			  (which really need to be correct)
			- Found incorrect path in gschemrc.in 
			  (scheme-directory)
			- Contributed a patch to make zoom limits have a 
			  border (zoom limits looks much better now)
