All greek to me. I can totally appreciate the power of Spice et al., but the last time I used that kind of simulation was, oh, waayyy too many years ago and I authored the input files with vi--- they would easily have fit on a page. Yea, I use gaf today to capture schematics and lay out boards--- but that's just scratching the surface of what I can do. I'm still only skin-deep, too ignorant to have even a worthless opinion on the topic. :) b.g. -- Bill Gatliff [email protected] _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
