How do I code a skill statement that changes the pin in the input direction to the output direction?

Pin direction of symbol and schematic OUT are input.

How do I code a skill statement that changes the pin in the input direction to the output direction?

Example>
Library name: AAA
Pin name: OUT (direction input)-> OUT (direction output)

    I guess you could be clearer...

    Anyway, if you want to change all the pins of a cellView matching a given regular expression you could use the following function:
     
    (defun abSetViewPinsDir (libName cellName viewName regex direction)
 "Set direction of pins matching REGEX to DIRECTION in LIBNAME CELLNAME VIEWNAME"
   (let ((cellView (dbOpenCellViewByType libName cellName viewName)))
     ;; Browse terminals (then could also browse terminal pins)
     (foreach term (get cellView 'terminals)
       ;; Set pin direction when matching regex
       (when (pcreMatchp regex (get term 'name))
         (setf (get term 'direction) direction)))
     (dbClose cellView)))
 
    Then guessing you want to change the direction of all the pins containing OUT in current cellView, you could do:

    (let ((cv (geGetEditCellView))) (abSetViewPinsDir cv->libName cv->cellName cv->viewName ".*OUT.*" "output"))

    Hope this will help,

    Cheers,
