I think some proper documentation needs to be written and/or some integration clean-ups. Now the answer: spice::plot is the old plot command from spice which uses X11, this has been deprecated / disabled in tclspice, but the command is still there. ( All it does now is to try and emulate a X11 window though Tk function calls, see the spice_gr_* callback functions in /usr/lib/spice/pkgIndex.tcl ) I have played with spice_init_gui and I haven't seen this error before. This command should be the first spice command you run. ( it sources the given circuit file ). After you have run this command you will have the spicewish::plot command and you are in business! Example: (run from magic ) ------------ package require spice spice_init_gui example.cir spice::step 50 spicewish::plot a0 ------------- "spice::spicetoblt <in> <out>" : <in> is a spice variable, Vdd#branch, etc. <out> is the name of a preexisting BLT vector, there is a bug in BLT or something, and I cannot create the BLT vector in the C-code. Your second "bad blt vector" error is because the BLT vector didn't already exist. I think that is about it, many thanks for testing the packages and sharing your ideas, Stefan -- Stefan Jones <stefan.jones AT multigig DOT com> Multigig Ltd
