-ngspice-26 has been compiled from the ngspice-26 tarball, Jan 11th, 2014. 
-
-ngspice.exe was generated by MS Visual Studio 2008, configuration
-ReleaseOMP, using full optimization (compiler flags /O2 /Oi /Ot /GL, linker flag /ltcg).
-
-vcomp90.dll is the microsoft runtime distributable for OpenMP 
-(see C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\1031\redist.txt).
-
-The XSPICE code models *.cm were generated with 
-TDM mingw gcc 4.8.1 and MSYS 1.0.10 using the following configuration:
-
-./configure --with-windows --enable-xspice --enable-cider --disable-debug
-
-gcc is invoked with the -O2 compiler flag, which is set in configure.ac.
-
-This version of ngspice 26 thus does not contain the adms or ndev extensions.
-
-Expand the ngspice-26-140112.zip file directly into C: so that you will get C:\Spice\bin etc.
-For other places for ngspice installation, see below.
-
-The following examples are tested under Windows XP professional and Windows 7 64 Bit.
-
-Directory /examples offers some example input files for special commands.

-*** How to use ngspice with examples provided in directory /tests ***
-
-*********************************************************************
-Starting ngspice from MS Explorer window (interactive mode):
-
-Double click on ngspice.exe in C:\Spice\bin
-
-*** ngspice window:
-
-cd c:\spice\tests\bsim4
-
-source comprt.cir
-
-run
-
-display
-
-plot v(1) v(2) v(3) v(8) v(9)
-
-write comprt2.raw
- 
-quit
-*********************************************************************
- 
-*********************************************************************
-* Starting ngspice within the msys window, interactive mode:
-
-* Open an MSYS window.
-
-*** msys window:
-
-export PATH=$PATH:/c/Spice/bin
-
-cd /c/Spice/tests/bsim4
- 
-ngspice comprt.cir
-
-*** ngspice window:
-
-run
-display
-plot all
-
-*** write data into raw file to actual directory /c/Spice/tests/bsim4:
-
-write comprt.raw
-
-quit
-
-If you want to use interactive mode with a circuit file in a different 
-directory (e.g. C:\test\comprt.cir) , you have to call ngspice like this:
-
-ngspice C:\\test\\comprt.cir 
-or
-ngspice C:\\test/comprt.cir
-
-MSYS 1.0.10 is specific about file and directory names!
-
-You cannot start ngspice from C:\ or D:\ directly if you don't
-have administrator rights. You may choose a subdirectory instead.
- 
-*********************************************************************
- 
-*********************************************************************
-* Starting ngspice within the msys window, batch mode:
-
-* Open an MSYS window.
-
-*** msys window:
-
-export PATH=$PATH:/c/Spice/bin
-
-cd /c/Spice/tests/bsim4
- 
-ngspice -b -r comprt3.raw -o comprt3.out comprt.cir
-
-* Plotting
-
-*** msys window:
-
-ngspice
-load comprt3.raw
-plot v(1) v(2) v(3) v(8) v(9)
-quit
-
-* The data in the raw file comprt3.raw are stored in a compact binary
-* format. If you want them to be ASCII, you have to uncomment  line 
-set filetype=ascii
-* in C:\Spice\share\ngspice\scripts\spinit (remove the '*').

-*********************************************************************
-* Starting ngspice within the dos window (cmd.exe) , interactive mode:
-* (also an example for using xspice extension)
-
-* Open a DOS window.
-
-*** DOS window:
-
-set PATH=%PATH%;C:\Spice\bin
-
-cd C:\Spice\examples\transimpedanceamp
- 
-ngspice output.net
-
-*** ngspice window:
-
-run
-display
-* end display with 'q'
-plot vout2
-
-* write all data into raw file to actual directory C:\Spice\tests\transimpedanceamp:
-write timp.raw
-* write only input and output
-write timp2.raw v3#branch vout2
-quit
-
-Calling a source file in a different directory is done by:
-
-ngspice D:\testinput\output.net
-
-*********************************************************************
-*********************************************************************
-* Use ngnutmeg for plotting within the dos window (cmd.exe), using the 
-raw file timp.raw created above:
-
-* Open a DOS window.
-
-*** DOS window:
-
-set PATH=%PATH%;C:\Spice\bin
-
-cd C:\Spice\examples\transimpedanceamp
- 
-ngspice
-
-*** ngspice window:
-load timp.raw 
-plot vout2
-plot i(v3)
-
-quit
-*********************************************************************
-
-*********************************************************************
-* Starting ngspice within the dos window (cmd.exe) , batch mode, using
-* .plot and/or .print commands in the input file (printer plot output),
-* no raw file, similar to SPICE2G6:
-
-* Open a DOS window.
-
-*** DOS window:
-
-set PATH=%PATH%;C:\Spice\bin
-
-cd C:\Spice\examples\
- 
-ngspice -b -o cs.out cs_mixtv4.inp
-
-* The ouput will be plotted and printed to C:\Spice\examples\cs.out.
-
-* If you enter
-ngspice -b -r cs.raw -o cs.out cs_mixtv4.inp
-* instead, you will get a raw file (simulator output data), 
-* .print and .plot will be ignored. 
-* You may plot the data by using ngnutmeg (see example above).

-* Running ngspice from  a different directory (for example D:\tmp)
-* Starting ngspice within the dos window (cmd.exe) , interactive mode:
-
-* Extract ngspice.zip to D:\tmp
-
-* Edit spinit (found in D:\tmp\Spice\share\ngspice\scripts) to have the correct
-  path for the XSPICE codemodels:
-  Line
-  codemodel C:/Spice/lib/spice/spice2poly.cm
-  has to be replaced by
-  codemodel D:/temp/Spice/lib/spice/spice2poly.cm
-  the other codemodels lines have to be changed respectively.
-
-* Open a DOS window.
-
-*** DOS window:
-
-set SPICE_LIB_DIR=D:\tmp\Spice\share\ngspice
-set PATH=%PATH%;D:\tmp\Spice\bin
-cd D:\tmp\Spice\examples\transimpedanceamp

-*********************************************************************
-* Running ngspice from  a different directory (for example D:\tmp)
-* Starting ngspice within the dos window (cmd.exe) , interactive mode
-  or starting with double click on ngspice in MS explorer:
-  
-* Extract ngspice.zip to D:\tmp
-* under Windows XP you may put the following lines into C:\autoexec.bat:
-
-set SPICE_LIB_DIR=D:\tmp\Spice\share\ngspice
-set PATH=%PATH%;D:\tmp\Spice\bin
-
-* Edit spinit (found in D:\tmp\share\ngspice\scripts) to have the correct
-  path for the XSPICE codemodels:
-  Line
-  codemodel C:/Spice/lib/spice/spice2poly.cm
-  has to be replaced by
-  codemodel D:/temp/Spice/lib/spice/spice2poly.cm
-  the other codemodels lines have to be changed respectively.
-
-* You may then start immediately after opening the command window (cmd.exe)
-  with:
-
-cd D:\tmp\Spice\examples\transimpedanceamp
-D:
- 
-ngspice output.net
-
-*** ngspice window:
-
-run
-plot vout2
-

-* spinit
-
-* spinit is used to set options or to set varioables. spinit is read into ngspice 
-  before any input file. The codemeodel path for xspice may be set as well.
-  
-  There is a search sequence for spinit.
-  1) If the invironmental variable is SPICE_LIB_DIR is set to a path, e.g. to
-  SPICE_LIB_DIR=D:\tmp\Spice\share\ngspice, then spinit is searched for
-  in D:\tmp\Spice\share\ngspice\scripts. If not set then we look for it in 
-  C:\Spice\share\ngspice\scripts. If this path is not available or spinit is
-  not there, then ngspice searches for spinit in the path where ngspice.exe
-  resides. If not found there, a warning note is issued.
-  
-* .spiceinit
-
-* .spiceinit is read directly after the spinit file. You may keep spinit as is, 
-  and put any personal preset variables or scripts into .spiceinit. Data in
-  .spiceinit will override data from spinit. 
-  ngspice will search for .spiceinit either in your home directory or in the 
-  directory where ngspice.exe is located.  
-
-*********************************************************************
-*********************************************************************
-* Universial, simple install
-
-  Put ngspice.exe and spinit into a subdirectory myspice\bin
-  Put the codemodels (e.g. analog.cm) into a subdirectoty myspice\codemodels.
-  Edit spinit and change the codemodel lines to
- 
-  codemodel ../codemodels/spice2poly.cm
-  
-  etc. 
-  
-  Instead of 'myspice' you may now choose any directory for your installation
-  of \bin and \codemodels, even C:\ will work.
