Gwave - a waveform viewer
Now on Sourceforge!
Gwave is now hosted on
sourceforge;
versions on my personal sites may not be up to date.
The 2009* releases so far primarily add stability improvements over the
previous release.
Additional updates, build-system fixes, and documentation/web-site
improvements are still planned.
Potential collaborators are definitely welcome to
contact me here or
at home.
Introduction
Gwave is a tool for viewing analog data, such as the output of Spice
simulations.
Gwave can read "raw" files from spice2G6, spice3F5 or ngspice, and a tabular
ASCII format suitable for use with GnuCAP or
homegrown tools. It can also read several binary and ascii files
written by commercial spice-type simulators such as hspice, tspice,
and nanosim.
It supports multiple "panels" (graticules) with multiple variables
displayed in each. Two vertical-bar cursors are available for
time-difference measurements. Multiple files can be loaded, for
comparing results of several simulations.

branch guile-gnome-platform-branch is the source for the
current gwave2 package and the 20090124 release. This branch is
where new development is taking place.
The older codebase is also still available in svn.
