If you don't work with either SciDesign schematics or Abel, this doesn't
apply to you. If you do use these facilities, I have created a couple of command
procedures which may be of interest to you.
EE$USERDISK:[HUBBERSTEY.CAETOOLS]ABEL.COM - This procedure wil run the Abel PLD
compiler for you with a few added features over the standard procedure in
ABELEXE:ABEL.COM.
- It remembers the previous command line and will re-execute it if
invoked with no parameters.
- It only runs simulation if specified by a command-line flag, /S.
- It chooses "Presto by pin" reduction (-R3) if not specified otherwise.
- It will submit the FUSEMAP and SIMULATE executions to a Microvax II
batch queue if you are not logged onto one.
- It provides online help for ALL those pesky command-line flags by
invoking with ? as the first parameter.
The only restriction is that it must be run with a symbol defined by the
following command line or strange things will happen:
ABEL :== @EE$USERDISK:[HUBBERSTEY.CAETOOLS]ABEL
EE$USERDISK:[HUBBERSTEY.CAETOOLS]SCIDXREF.COM - This procedure will generate a
cross-reference list of all tag names in a set of SciDesign schematic sheets as
well as a list of all tags referenced only once and, optionally, a list of the
number of times each tag is used. This is intended mainly as a utility for
generating node-name cross-reference lists but can be used for other things,
such as figuring approximate bus loading (how many times is D0 used, for
instance), locating components on back-annotated schematics (what sheet is R6
on?) and whatever else you can think of. It provides online help by invoking
with ? as the first parameter.
Feel free to use these or hijack portions for your own purposes.
