Hi all,

I am a former hardware engineer who has spent the last 5 years
doing software. I've recently come back to hardare (specifically
FPGA design) and I'm playing with iverilog and gtkwave.

Damn, I'm impressed. This stuff is really good! Much better
than having to work on windoze.

I do however have a couple of questions about gtkwave:

  - What is the current development status, how is it progressing
    and how many people work on it?

  - Would it be possible to have another file menu item (say Reload
    current VCD) which would keep the current viewed signals but
    reload the current VCD file? That way I could fix a bug in my
    simulation, re-run it and not have to go in and select my 
    signals again.

  - Would it be possible for gtkwave to automatically reload the
    VCD file when the file changes on disk? Many text editors
    do this and its a nice feature.

Cheers,
Erik
