Forgive me if this has been discussed before. I'm looking for something that I can run on my PC that will serve as a graphics based digital circuit designer. Ideally, it would be public domain, support some "universal" output format (such as GIF, Postscript, or even Epson FX dot graphics), and perhaps even run simulations. It should behave like a word-processor for circuits, so that I can create neat, organized circuit diagrams. If I move, for example, a flip-flop from one side of the diagram to the other, it should move the connecting wires along with it. I have seen two or three programs on SIMTEL, but really didn't find what I was looking for. I was loaned an evaluation version of a program called MICRO-LOGIC II, but it seems that it needed more that 640k of RAM to run. I also don't think I could afford to buy the real version of the software (MICRO-LOGIC has a lot of nice features, according to the documentation, like simulations, delay calculations, fan-out control, etc). Please Email me directly if you know of any good package (whether it be commercial or shareware or freeware) and describe its availability (stores, FTP, etc). I will summarize to the net, as I don't doubt there are others who may be interested. Thank you muchly! ___Samuel___ _________I_claim_and_accept_sole_responsibility_for_the_above._SjG.____________ "What did it mean to fly | <goldstein@aerospace.aero.org> a tremor in your soul | ______|\______ to resist the dull insistence | Order is a special case | ---|/ of gravity" - the Camper | subset of Chaos | | ______________________________/_\______________________________/_\_____________
