[Xcircuit-dev] Time for a rewrite of the netlisting?

[Svenn Are Bjerkem]

Hi Tim,

I started looking into the netlist.c file in order to see how difficult it is 
to write a new back-end to xcircuit. It does not look very simple. How 
difficut would it be to have xcircuit load a tcl-script which access the 
internal data-structure and create the netlist. This way it is no longer 
nescessary to recompile xcircuit for each added netlist format.

I was thinking about writing a vhdl backend, but it looks pretty impossible.
