That is HSPICE specific.  I think it is just BSIM3 with a 
different name,  Try level 7.

I plan to port the most recent BSIM3 soon.  You are not the only 
one asking for it.  One of them even has money.

It is easy to accept and ignore them, but it is unlikely that I 
will be able to duplicate features from a proprietary 
simulator.  Free/open-source models are more likely.

I am working aggressively on that now.  It is harder in gnucap 
because you can make arbitrary changes to the circuit 
interactively.  In Spice, a simple preprocessor with text 
substitution works.  The basic design of gnucap is to be 
interactive, or let you play in a script.  It means that the 
storage method of all internal variables must change, and a 
mechanism for changing them later must exist.  The next 
development snapshot will have some form of .param.  
Eventually, it will be more powerful than what is in HSPICE.
