+bom_?.py are some python scripts which read a generic xml netlist from eeschema,
+and create a bom.
+
+All examples use kicad_netlist_reader.py, which is a python utility to read
+and parse this generic xml netlist and create the corresponding data
+used to build the bom.
+
+You can modify them to build the bom you want.
+
+to use them, you should install python, and run:
+python bom_example?.py <netlist name> <bom list netname>
+
+See Eeschema doc, chapter 14 for info about the generic xml netlist format,
+and how to run a script from Eeschema to create a customized netlist or BOM.
+
+If the python comment
+"""
+    @package
+    some comments
+"""
+is added to the begining of the python script, the comment will be displayed
+in Eescheam, in the BOM dialog
+
+For instance:
