does kicad solve different problems from hardware description languages?
<turq>
when would you kicad, and when should you use an hdl?
<turq>
can you use an hdl to build PCBs as you would kicad?
<turq>
substitute kicad for geda if that's your thing
<turq>
an hdl generally revolves around gates and not necessarily components
<turq>
unless i'm wrong?
<turq>
i guess you would use an hdl when you need to create a processor, maybe?

HDL to design an IC that could be fabricated as an ASIC or emulated with an FPGA. Kicard to design a circuit board using ICs and capacitors/resistors/etc. That's how it's usually done afaik.
<peepsalot>
you can also define individual chips as modules in hdl and connect them according to a schematic, somewhat like they were chips on a pcb. difference is the fpga interconnect fabric does the routing instead of drawing out pcb traces
<peepsalot>
some commercial tools have schematic/block diagram interfaces you can design a circuit in, and it will generate hdl from that
<peepsalot>
module libraries to simulate 7400 series chips etc
