DESCRIPTION

21       The sw2asc program reads the switcap.out output file produced by  SWIT‐
22       CAP2  and  produces  a  set of ASCII datafiles which can be more easily
23       loaded into various waveform plotting programs.
24
25       Data generated by SWITCAP2 "PRINT" statements is; extracted and written
26       to  an  output  file in an ASCII format which can be directly loaded by
27       the gwave waveform viewer or more easily loaded into  a  tool  such  as
28       scilab , octave , grace, , or matlab
29
30       If  multiple  analyses  are  in the SWITCAP2 output file, then they are
31       written to individual files.  The output file names  are  derived  from
32       the  input  file  name by appending ".{SSS,TRAN}.#.asc"" to the name of
33       the input file.  SSS is used for Sinusoidal Steady State analysis  out‐
34       put and TRAN is used for.  TRANsient analysis output.  # corresponds to
35       the analysis number (ie if you have 3 SSS analyses in  your  file,  you
36       will end up with .SSS.1.asc, .SSS.2.asc, and .SSS.3.asc.
