<b>Function</b>

Defines a package variant for a device.

<p>
This command is used in the device edit mode to define, delete or rename
a package variant.
<p>
Without parameters a dialog is opened that allows you to select a package
and define this variant's name.
<p>
The parameters <tt>pname vname</tt> assign the package <tt>pname</tt> to
the new variant <tt>vname</tt>.
<p>
The notation <tt>pname@lname vname</tt> fetches the package <tt>pname</tt>
from library <tt>lname</tt> and creates a new package variant.
This can also be done through the library objects'
<a href=12.htm>context menu</a> or via <i>Drag&Drop</i> from
the Control Panel's tree view.
<p>
The single parameter <tt>name</tt> switches to the given existing package
variant. If no package variants have been defined yet, and a package of the
given name exists, a new package variant named '' (an "empty" name) with the
given package will be created (this is for compatibility with version 3.5).
<p>
If <tt>-old_name new_name</tt> is given, the package variant <tt>old_name</tt>
is renamed to <tt>new_name</tt>.
<p>
The single parameter <tt>-name</tt> deletes the given package variant.
<p>
The name of a package variant will be appended to the device set name to
form the full device name. If the device set name contains the character <tt>'?'</tt>,
that character will be replaced by the package variant name.
Note that the package variant is processed after the technology, so if the device set
name contains neither a <tt>'*'</tt> nor a <tt>'?'</tt> character, the resulting device
name will consist of <i>device_set_name</i><tt>+</tt><i>technology</i><tt>+</tt><i>package_variant</i>.
<p>
Following the PACKAGE command, the CONNECT command is used to define
the correspondence of pins in the schematic device to pads on the
package.
<p>
When the <a href=30.htm>BOARD</a> command is used in schematic
editing mode to create a new board, each device is represented on a board
layout with the appropriate package as already defined with the
PACKAGE command.
