Dear Chitlesh,

Now that I have a copy of it, the problem with this edif file is that
it contains no information about how to draw each symbol.  I have not
looked very closely at what's going on, but xcircuit's edif parser
should either get a full drawing definition of each symbol, or else
each symbol name must correspond to a matching library object already
loaded into xcircuit.

Also, what you sent me in the example above is a netlist, not a
schematic.  It has entries such as "(net N00000027 (joined (portRef y5)
(portRef 0 (instanceRef I00000028))))", which simply says that this
net joins two ports together, but gives no more information about
where to place the instances or wires than a SPICE deck.  XCircuit
does not do automatic schematic generation (at least not until somebody
fixes the broken code in the ASG directory), and so it needs a full
specification of geometry, not just a netlist.
