This is easy.

can easily be added .. need a spec.  could use the CaZM format, 
which is already supported by gwave.  It is ascii (gnucap 
format) with a header.

Just probe the second variable and you are there.

The Spice raw format doesn't do any better.

People who think commercial products think of this stuff as 
stagnant.  They see what the product does, and doesn't do, and 
put up with it.

Big companies have their own CAD departments that hack out 
custom software for the circuit designers to use.  The CAD 
developers work next to the circuit developers.

We provide that to the little guy, the hobbiest, developers of 
open-source circuits.

Here, we must think of what a program doesn't do as a wish list.  
Talk about it.  It can happen.

"output" plugins are already on the gnucap to-do list.  So much 
has happened since the last stable release that I want to make 
a stable release before doing output plugins, but you might be 
able to convince me otherwise.
