What your describing is in some ways like linears switcher cad 3.

Boy, what a time saver - In the past, I basically winged it and if I didn't get it right, I would go back to the proverbial drawing board (or bread board as it may be...) until I did. FWIW, I'm using switcher cad at the moment and I don't like it because it's not intergrated into geda so I have to double up on some of the work required to simulate. Even so, the value to being able to simulate cannot be understated or at least, this spice novice thinks so. I'm psyched about the gui! Regards Marvin
