Re: gEDA-user: gnetlist l and m options

[Paul Tan <pt75234@xxxxxxx>]

Hi Steve,

Thanks for all the informations you provided.
Its been really helpful and when I get time, I will
search for more info on those gEDA topics.

As you all probably know, I am of the opinion
that gEDA/gaf is in a very good stable foundation,
to be able to allow us to implement some (for
now), in the future, most, if not all, the features
that a commercial EDA tool vendor has to offer.
I would like to see that a fully Hierarchical Parameterized
Design features set be implemented in gEDA,
comparable to some of the commercial advance
VLSI design tools.
Thanks again.

Best Regards,
Paul Tan

Paul,

The code Peter is refering to is quite stale by now. It has been my
intention to finish of a few more tasks and then make my latest code
available.

These tasks include the completion of making the netlister a schem
script engine (hence my questions about the l and m command line
options), Move the writting of schematic files and symbols from the c
code to schem scripts (the reading of schematics and symbols is
completed), Publishing a more or less complete scheme interface for the
library, complete midlevel and backend scripts for supporting
hierarchical verilog, vhdl and spice.

As I mentioned earlier, I am happy to let others do what they wish with
this body of work. It is geda based (thus gpl) without a doubt it
carries geda dna deeply. While I grumble about the state of geda code
the reality is that the geda developers have captured within their
code/data structures many important EDA concepts.

If you really wish to see the latest (stale) published version I would
be happy to give you a link. If you have a little patience I expect to
be releasing a much more interesting version soon. If you are sharp at
scheme I am very interested in talking to you about the scheme interface
and the flow of the scheme script engine that the netlister is becoming.

Thanks,

Steve Meier
