 Or export to postscript as multi-file and print just the ones you want.
 
 How about getting it to print to a file - it might be cumbersome, but
 then I could somehow get just the pages that are useful.
 
 Use the export-postscript option.

That's what I do.  export-postscript, select multi-file.  I usually put 
them all in a subdirectory called 'checkplots' so that they don't 
clutter up the rest of the directory.  I have a simple generic shell 
script that consists of several lines of 'lpr -l *.front.ps' and so 
forth for the set that I most commonly use.  But I find that I often am 
only interested in one or two at a time, so the individual files output 
suits nicely.

While we're making wishes... I wish the export-postscript dialog would 
remember my settings so I didn't have to click the same ones every time. 
Of course, I've been too lazy to recompile with my own set of defaults 
:)  But that is something I really should do.

Re: gEDA-user: some problem about gnetlist and subsckt

2008-08-11 Thread Ludovic SMADJA
thanks for the history .

Is there a new tutorial with gnucap use, somewhere ?

 Hi, everyone

 In order to create and simulate a quite complex schema, I've first tried to
 follow the tutorial (http://www.brorson.com/gEDA/SPICE/intro.html) to
 create a simple subckt with gschem and simulate it.

 The subschema is a simple filter with 1 resistor and 1 capacitor. I've
 integrated the schema in an upper one with one voltage source and a charge
 resistor.

 When I generate the netlist, gnetlist doesn't complains about anything but
 the generated netlist is incorrect, the subckt is created but with the full
 schema, not only the subschema :

 here's my files and the command I used. Could you indicate what's I've do
 wrong, I've tried all the past day to generate a correct netlist and I can't
 see what's the problem ?

 Regards,

 Ludovic SMADJA

 Commands :

 gnetlist -g spice-sdb -o filtre.cir filtre.sch

 gnetlist -g spice-sdb -o testFiltre.cir testFiltre.sch

Depending on what you need the printout for, a screen snapshot might be 
an extremely simple alternative - to print to paper, to easily view a file.
