+
+  Note that for "full" PCBs, the SizeX and SizeY are redundant as they could be

+
+  *.slat files
+  =============
+
+  A slat is defined by the list of its PCB, described starting 
+  from the beam and going outward.
+
+  One PCB per line, preceded by the keyword PCB
+  Other lines not matching this syntax are ignored.
+  After the PCB is the list of manu ids for this PCB.
+ 
+  Example :
+
+  PCB X 1-3;24-20;42;44;53
+  PCB X 1-14
+  PCB Y 100-90
+  PCB Z 1;2;3;4;5;6;7;12;120
+
+  defines a slat with 4 PCBs : XXYZ
+
+  The manu to motif relationship is attached to the fact that we're counting 
+  counter-clockwise, starting on the lower-left of the PCB. (and the pcb files 
+  have to follow this convention to defined their motifs, otherwise all 
+  this won't work).
+
+  Note that the definition of the PCBs have to be in files with extension
+  .pcb (X.pcb, Y.pcb, Z.pcb)
