XCircuit regards circuits as inherently hierarchical, and +writes both hierarchical PostScript output and hierarchical SPICE netlists. +Circuit components are saved in and retrieved from libraries which are fully +editable. XCircuit does not separate artistic expression from circuit +drawing; it maintains flexiblity in style without compromising the power +of schematic capture. + +XCircuit is flexible enough to be used as a generic program for drawing just +about anything, and is competitive with powerful programs such as xfig. +It is especially good for any task requiring repeated use of a standard set +of graphical objects, including architectural drawing, printed circuit board +(PCB) layouts, and music typography. |
