I want to label groups of connections on a plug, so something like
(ASCII art here) :-


         (  Con1
         |  Con2
To LCD   |  Con3
Display  <  Con4
         |  Con5
         |  Con6
         (  Con7


Does that make sense?

I have produced an acceptable result using lines and small arcs but a
Dia object would be easier to use.
