Hi there all. I just discovered ktechlab yesterday as an option to install into a Ubuntu system. This looks like... it has a TON of promise. I love the real-time oscilloscope and the simple way of dragging a component and hooking it up. I've been reading the archives and I'm glad it's been resurrected from the dead. I *also* want to get vacuum tube / valve diodes, triodes, and pentodes implemented ;) I'm pursuing simulation of analog audio circuits and while I realize that this is not the main thrust of ktechlab, this is the easiest to use program I've run across yet. It's worth expanding and developing.. who knows? It could become the standard in the future once it's been refactored, ported to the relevant architectures, freed up from hard-coded components, extensibility has been added, etc. The rest of the EDA stuff on GNU/Linux systems, like gEDA, are a nasty pain to use. I've got some C++ background mostly in QT3, a bit of OGL, and I'm a professional tech doc writer for a living who is very impatient with software so I tend to simplify the interfaces I write to the bare minimum while remaining complete. I'd love to contribute; this is a sweet-looking project. So the question is, what should I do and where should I start? Incidentally, would there be any plans to implement free-rotation, so that the diodes in my bridge rectifier can actually be placed in the way they are normally drawn on a schem? gschem doesn't do it and I think qucs doesn't either. - --Glen -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFJEwyNLstl3vProOARAjthAKCVpq++mse5HCPH3l1VUxenJaXxjwCgo7wb 9fl8joOPQVTxxOYmhxGtD9o= =3wff -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Ktechlab-devel mailing list Ktechlab-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/ktechlab-devel
