1. Clearly, you didn't do the one thing I told you to do then, to actually run it -- which is to run it with Sun's JRE 1.5 or higher. This is documented with the distribution. From your comments about what a serious viewer can do, you clearly haven't tried it, since many of those ARE supported. Can the other released tools do all of those?
2. It is under GPL, so clearly, you didn't read the license either. 3. You can follow the standard java BUILD procedure of JAVAC, so I don't know what's not standard about that. I also include the entire netbeans project on sourceforge for someone to compile that way as well. That being said, since it's platform independent, you don't need to compile it. Humerous that you talk about a convenient build procedure, when few people can get the other viewer to compile on their distributions. 4. As for working with gnucap, it was never intended to work with gnucap; it was made to work with ngspice. Last time I checked, most universities still use SPICE in their curiculum -- check latest edition of Sedra and Smith, for instance. I am considering adding gnucap support, but haven't seen that request yet on the sourceforge.

Yes, and I sent you a bug report stating that it didn't work on my system, and it appears not to work with gnucap. To consider something to be "part of gEDA", I also expect it to work with GNU tools, be licensed and distributed GPL, and not require anything that is not "Free" according to Richard Stallman's definition, and to have a convenient and standardized build procedure. A serious viewer for analog simulation data can plot any data against any other, show in the S plane, show triggered data such as "eye" diagrams, do math on the waveforms, overlay waveforms scaled and time shifted, ...... And ... it has an extension language. It also supports, or at least doesn't interfere with, the scripting ability of the simulator. I do believe that kjwaves can evolve into this serious viewer. I will be very happy when that happens. _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
