Now, whenever you type things in in Eagle, you don't have to click on this field to begin with, it'll automatically start to fill out. And there's lots of commands that we can use up there. We're just going to use a couple within this course. One of the big differences too, is that you can use a command that's just stated as I've written it or you can put it with a trailing semicolon. And the semicolon means that it'll just plow through a bunch of the options that you would otherwise have to select. So in this case, I'll do auto with no semicolon, which means that it'll ask me some questions. If you're doing a really complicated board, you might choose to have it make high effort…
