Re: [Help-gnucap] spice models

Using scons works.

Now trying to put this into use with gschem and gspiceui... I seem to 
still have some trouble with the whole gschem/gnucap thing.

1) I put the following in my /usr/share/gEDA/gafrc.d/geda-clib.scm
####
.....
     ("supervisor" "Microprocessor supervisors (misc)")
     ("opto" "Optocouplers (misc)")
     ("relay" "Relays (misc)")
     ("misc" "Misc. unsorted symbols")

   ; Other

     ;"verilog"
     ;"vhdl"
     ;"gnetman"

   ; spicelib
     )))
(component-library-command
  "/home/myusername/spicelib/scripts/gedaparts nxp_bipolar.index"
  "/home/myusername/spicelib/scripts/gedaparts nxp_bipolar.index"
  "NXP_bipolar_transistors")
#### [EOF]

When I open gschem I find a Library called NXP_bipolar_transistors, but 
no components in it (see attached screenshot). Also I get the message:
###
Library command failed [/home/myusername/spicelib/scripts/gedaparts 
nxp_bipolar.index]
Error output was:
/home/myusername/spicelib/scripts/gedaparts: undefined case
###
The file nxp_bipolar.index exists and has 218.4kB


2) I am very confused about all these different attributes I can/should 
give to components: device, refdes, value, model, model-name, source, 
net, device.... and is it case sensitive? How will I know if I entered 
anything wrong?


3) Can someone help me to edit the attached schematics so that I get a 
reasonable result with gnucap? I also attached an explanation what the 
circuit should do. LM317 is preinstalled with my gEDA installation.


I'm happy to write a low-level tutorial once I know how to do this which 
could then be distributed with spicelib. I think many first-time user 
have similar problems than me.
