TO_DO list for version 1.5
|
|
------------------------------
|
|
|
|
As of version 1.5.70, the major to-do item list is complete.
|
|
|
|
Possible useful additions (not critical)
|
|
----------------------
|
|
|
|
1) Add automatic file format guessing from file extension for "write" command
|
|
2) Incorporate into Tcl-based xcircuit
|
|
3) Extend 2-terminal device handling (namely R and C) to more formats
|
|
(where appropriate).
|
|
4) Generate feedback in the form of a .mag file to facilitate interactive
|
|
netlist comparison in conjunction with magic. This may be an error
|
|
file, but it may also make use of magic 7.2's "element" command to
|
|
build rat's nests or outline areas of interest or anything else that
|
|
might be helpful to interactive comparison.
|
|
5) Handle the hierarchy of ".ext" files automatically.
|
|
6) Retain position information from ".ext" files for the purpose of writing
|
|
feedback information into magic and for matching devices in the element
|
|
list to their counterparts in the original layout [note---done for .sim
|
|
format, which contains position information. Usefulness of improving
|
|
the .ext parsing is questionable. Ditto for item 8].
|
|
7) Expand upon the details of format-to-format translation, (especially
|
|
ntk and ext formats, SPICE format writing, and sim format reading).
|
|
8) Add a "subcircuit" command to mimic a SPICE ".SUBCKT ... .ENDS" card
|
|
(i.e., the ability to add subcircuit "stub" definitions from the
|
|
command line or from a setup file).
