[Info-gnucap] New Gnucap development snapshot

[Al Davis]

There is a new development snapshot of Gnucap available.


Visible changes:

Most values can now use a named parameter in place of a numeric 
value.  The value can then be specified in a "param" statement.

For this snapshot, these parameter names must start with 
underscore.  Model names must not start with underscore.

New "param" command, sets parameters.  If you use a param 
command to change the value of any parameter, the new value 
will be substituted for all instances of the parameter.  You 
can use it to try several values.


Bug fixes:

A bug in model name scoping has been fixed.


Internal changes:

More transitional changes in Node and related classes.  Working 
on *-AMS support.  

Most of the code to fill in default values and calculated 
parameters has been moved from post_parse to elaboration, so it 
will be redone whenever a circuit change is done.  A down side 
of this is that some errors that were previously reported 
immediately on entry will not be reported until elaboration 
time.


Bugs:

The manual and web page have not been updated since the last 
"stable" release 0.34.
