Script file use

A simple script file that will run a circuit prepared as indicated above and plot any resulting plots can be created as follows:

#! /bin/sh

# remove any left over plot files

rm plot*

# run the analysis

ccicap $1.inp $1.out

# print any new plots that resulted

lpr plot*

If the script file is named 'caprun', a CCICAP analysis can be done by entering the following command line:

$caprun circuit

where 'circuit' is the name of an existing CCICAP analysis file with a '.inp' extension. The ASCII output will be placed in a file named 'circuit.out'.
