I use gschem for the circuit, but that is all. I make a "include" file for the models, then run the simulator either interactively or with a script. I never use a GUI to make simulator commands. The netlist file usually requires some editing. "gnetlist" never gets it quite right. This is one reason the gnucap project is considering a plugin to read gschem files directly. As a teacher, I require students to learn how to use netlists and simulator commands directly. If they want to use a GUI, that is their choice, provided that it doesn't get in the way, and they learn how to work without the GUI. I show them the command line and text netlists first, then let them use a GUI if they want. Students that start on a GUI often never learn to do anything non-trivial. _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list geda-user@moria.seul.org http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
