History It all started with rather complex code using corner stitching and inference in Spinifex. This code did not work. To fix it would have made it a monster, and this just for some tiny transistors. Hence I decided to use an analytic approach instead of Shand's algorithmic approach. As it then comes, the code subsequently wandered in a slightly modified form in Genista. Until Christian LeCoq said: zis iz exactli wat I need for Spice. So here it is in a separate module for your delight. pSaguaroDoc.tioga Written by Giordano Bruno Beretta, April 4, 1987 gbb, November 25, 1987 1:15:55 pm PST J00J%%JIunleadedMark centerHeadersK centerFooter''ItitleIsubtitle!IauthorsIabstractms89Ob ENO&O O t}OI boilerplate qoboxheadJV IbodyR4
