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.
Gwave is a viewer for spice-like simulator output and other analog data
Gwave can read several file formats. It attempts to guess file formats
based on filename, and then tries all file formats until one succedes.
These file formats are known:
CAzM transient output (*.[BNW])
HSPICE binary and ascii formats (*.tr0, *.sw0, *.ac0)
Spice2 and Spice3 "raw" output (*.raw)
An ascii format with whitespace-seperated columns and column headings,
such as that produced by ACS (Al's circuit simulator). (*.acs, *.asc, *.ascii)
The "Export Postscript" and "Export PNM" options on the main File menu
provide the rudiments of output for inclusion in other
documentation. They and simply write out files called gwave_out.ps and
gwave_out.pnm into the current directory. In the future, a dialog box
will allow configuring the print and export output.
