The big change here is that gwave now uses gtk2 instead of gtk1
------------------------------
New in 20090213
- Fix warnings related to GtkTooltips
- fix reading of ascii spice3 rawfiles containing blank lines, like those
generated by ngspice
- add patchfile and explanation sometimes needed when building g-wrap
- applied submitted patch that fixes some gcc return-type warnings, fixed
many additional gcc warnings.
New in 20090124
- minor fixes adaptating for stable guile-gnome-platform-2.16.1
- seems to be stable now
New in 20080206
- Another alpha release using guile-gnome-platform, for wider testing
- Fixed "zoom dialog" for guile-gnome-platform
- Still having some occasional crashes, apparently due to memory corruption
that I haven't yet tracked down or pinned on guile-gnome-platform or anything else.

a "gwave2" version that uses Gtk+-2.0 by way of guile-gnome-platform.
Feature-wise, about the same as the previous release.
I think I've fixed most of the crashes. Known defects:
Several dialogs that should have defaults don't.
The change-waveform-color menu doesn't show the colors, just numbers.
Most of the previous pkgsrc patches have been incorporated upstream (yay!).

- full-height vertical scrollbar appears if the total height of all
panels becomes larger than the window.
- new panel type "jumbo" stays larger even when things get crowded
- most deprecated guile calls removed. Guile 1.6 or later is now required.
New in 20050928
- ALPHA RELEASE: may crash. do not rely on for production use.
- handling of multi-sweep datafiles
- vertical scrollbars on label/measure area in each wavepanel make handling
large numbers of waveforms easier.

- Got docstring extraction from C source to .txt files in doc directory working again
- applied submitted patch that cleans up warnings from gcc3 about multiline text strings in C code
New in 20030917
- bugfixes to make the new print/plot stuff work better
- path to working gnu graph found by configure is passed to scheme code
Unfortunately, guile{,14}/buildlink3.mk directly includes it, and I don't
know which dependencies actually need libltdl, so it was a recursive bump.
Hopefully this recursive inclusion can be ripped out of
guile{,14}/buildlink3.mk at some point and bubble down to dependencies that
actually use libltdl, avoiding this headache in the future....
in the process. (More information on tech-pkg.)
Bump PKGREVISION and BUILDLINK_DEPENDS of all packages using libtool and
installing .la files.
Bump PKGREVISION (only) of all packages depending directly on the above
via a buildlink3 include.
This update is a collection of little improvements and a significant
verhaul of hardcopy plot and export.
Hardcopy and documentation output can now be obtained using either graph
or Gnuplot. A dialog box allows choosing output formas and a few other
settings. Additional plot/export filters can be plugged in by writing a
suitable scheme module.
There's a data-export function for extracting and saving a subset of a
datafile as ascii.
The stacking/drawing order of waveforms can be changed.
Selected waveforms are now drawn in a highlighted style.
all dependencies on packages depending on "png" which contain shared
libraries, all for the (imminent) update to the "png" package.

New in 20011020:
- better measurement: value at both cursors or difference in values at cursors
- enhanced handling of log scales
- yet more file-reading improvements and general bug fixes
foo-* to foo-[0-9]*. This is to cause the dependencies to match only the
packages whose base package name is "foo", and not those named "foo-bar".
A concrete example is p5-Net-* matching p5-Net-DNS as well as p5-Net. Also
change dependency examples in Packages.txt to reflect this.
from the NEWS file:
New in 20001123:
- Saving wave and panel configuration as guile scripts.
- Executing guile scripts from menu or command line (-s <script> option)
- Remote control using the gwave-exec and gwaverepl utilities
New in 20001004:
- Spice3/Ngspice rawfile improvements: binary files now work!
- Other minor file-reading improvements.
- spice source code to examples for which I could still find it.
New in 20001004:
- Major improvements to handling of binary files produced by HSPICE.
- Overhaul of input of spice3/ngspice raw files; more robust and tolerant
of complex numbers.
- User interface improvements: tooltips added. User's .gwaverc no longer
required to do lots of standard setup. system.gwaverc can be copied
to $HOME/.gwaverc and edited to taste.
- sp2sp utility included for converting any spice file readable by gwave into
a convenient tabular ascii format.
Notable changes since the last pkged version are:

New in 20000518:
- Logarithmic scales working on both X and Y axis.
New in 20000509:
- First public guile/guile-gtk release.
- Popup menu on visible-wave button can activate per-waveform dialog box
- Logarithmic scale on Y axis working; on X axis it isn't quite there yet.
New in 20000108:
- Merged in guile and guile-gtk; the GUI is mostly written in guile now.
- Some additional improvements to reading of HSPICE input. Reading partial
files from simulations still in progress works for ascii .tr0 files.
