Dear Dave,

Sorry this response is not so quick---I've been on vacation down in
Virginia for a few days.

From the output, it appears that while the parameters were created, the
text that was parameterized remained unchanged. Certainly it is some
bug from long ago that has since been fixed. I really do recommend that
you update to XCircuit 3.6.

"libinst" lines only appear in library (.lps) files. I suppose the
principle of self-containment that I espouse demands that they ought
to go in the saved .ps file, as well. I haven't done it, because I
never thought about it before you brought it up.
