Hello Al,
I am working in an user interface for gnucap. Nowadays it is pre-alpha test...
A screenshot of this interface is attached. I am working to make it better
and more intuitive. My aim is to provide an easy GNU simulation system for
undergraduate students.
The program reads a schematic from gschem, simulate it, according to a
desired mode (AC, DC, TRAN, etc.) and plots results using gnuplot. I hope to
put it as soon as possible in an repository like savanna. Did you said an OO
interpreted language? It is written all in Guile.

You know what I'd love to see? Some sort of inter-process communication
where you could run a simulation and do things like click on a net in
the schematic for plotting a result or backannotate dc operating points
to the schematic. If you're doing transistor level design, the ability
to with one click have transconductances, currents, and voltages all
annotated to the schematics is really useful.
With some up front design work, you could probably use such a facility
for cross probeing a layout where you could select a component in either
schematic or layout and zoom to it in the other. Again, a very useful
feature.
