I do most of my work in VHDL now so drawing schematics actually ending
up in a netlist is the rarest task I do. But I use xcircuit to draw
block and timing diagrams and anything that a drawing tool can be used
to. Specially in timing diagrams the hassle is huge when I need to
insert another pulse in the middle. Had that problem recently when I
had to prolong a fetch cycle to capture the last bit from a shift
register in a heavily handshaked data processing chain. I will pick up
the tarball and test the feature.

Kind regards,
