That's right, but the format still does not contain all required informations to use the data. * your loosing the headlines * when running a dc simulation with more than one variable your loosing the second scale. * (more than one plot possible in one file) > It seems strange to me that when there is an obvious, easy to > read for humans, easy for a computer to read, easy to generate > format, that everything except Spice uses .. that Spice > doesn't change to that format. > Every Spice variant has its own raw format.

Yes, but I'd still would like to have a "standard" binary format. hdf5 would be nice. http://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu/products/hdf5/index.html Regards Werner _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list geda-user@moria.seul.org http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
