Commercial version

The evaluation version of SPICECAD can be started only with the described two steps :
first , start SPICECAD, then, type
cell -c cellname
When you purchase a SPICECAD license, a second binary will be shipped to you, which reduces this to a single step.

Here, typing
spicecad_noshell -c cellname

starts SPICECAD and displays the cell 'cellname' (or an empty schematic if the cell couldn't be found). When using this SPICECAD version, the spice3 command interpreter will be bypassed. But, spice3 commands can still be issued by using the mouse command window (see page [*]).
