A tedious task, but it needs doing.
Here's one for you: In the current svn version, it is on longer possible to change the input/output status of the pins of a PIC in the flowcoder view using a mouse click on the PIC pins. I think that this will be a big issue for first time users of our project and needs to be fixed for the 0.3.7 release. Finally, Could you recommend some websites/books on Modified Nodal Analysis techniques? I really need to get to grips with the core thinking around this project. Jason.
