    Hi Folks,

please excuse my "stupid" questions. I read the docu, went thru
the tutorials, and now I'm struggling with the techfiles.


All I want to do is find/create a techfile for TSMC 0.35 5lm or
TSMC 0.18 6lm and load some gds2 files that I have available for
both processes and have a look at it. I'm especially interested
in the OpenGL extensions and the Texture Mapping that Jeff added
(I'm not sure whether these are in the 7.1 version or only
 available via CVS, or whether he want's them included at all)

But first things first: Load gds, view it.

I downloaded the current.tar.gz from

http://bach.ece.jhu.edu/~tim/programs/magic/magic7.html

and had a look at the mosis web-page and searched the web for
mosis magic tsmc 0.18 techfile


I learned that I can load a techfile with magic -T mSCN6M_DEEP.09
(it has a tech27 extension, so it's preprocessed)
The mSCN6M_DEEP.09.TSMC loading totally confuses magic (see below)
I assume that it's TSMC 0.18, but wouldn't be able to tell from the
filename :-(

I had a look at

http://www.mosis.org/Technical/Designsupport/menu-designsupport.html#magic
http://www.isi.edu/~sondeen/magic.html

but couldn't find any more hints.



So here are my questions:

Are there TSMC 0.35 5lm, TSMC 0.18 6lm techfiles for magic available ?

should

   magic -T techfilename
   :calma read tsmc0.35.gds
   :load "toplevel_structname"
   :view

   show the toplevel struct and should

   :calma write tsmc0.35.magic.gds

   write it back out ?


Thanks for you patience with a first time magic user.
If you're willing to chat with me for a couple of minutes, please
send me your phone number and I'll call you back.

Best Regards

Stefan
