Text-only green-screen, RIP. But wait there's more! THUD also moved from RCS(!) to Git: http://www.gnuvola.org/wip/ Lastly, i have resumed using uppercase letters in email. Wow! thi README excerpt: THUD is a cycle-oriented scheme-based register transfer level (RTL) simulation environment. The design is expressed in THUD hardware description language (HDL), which supports basic 1/0/x operators and hierarchical instantiation. THUD can be used in batch mode or through one of its interactive faces. Primitives are provided for session management; file format translation; scheduling; data structure examination; compilation; HDL generation; and of course, simulation. Additionally, the entire Scheme development environment afforded by Guile is present. The distribution includes a small test suite; documentation in Info and HTML formats; and some examples. NEWS excerpt: - 0.25 | 2008-02-12 - License now GPLv3+ (see COPYING) - Bugfixes for `dumpvars' - Regression THUD 0.24 (2004-08-08) broke `dumpvars': Output contained only the module declarations and initial dump; the rest was omitted. Now fixed. - Values only dumped when changed Prior versions of THUD (except 0.24) would dump all signals requested on all cycles. Now, it dumps only those signals whose values changed between the previous cycle and the current one. VCD (Value Change Dump) is the format name, after all. :-/ - Enhancements to `dumpvars' - Timescale now 1ns - Aliases excluded - Tested w/ Dinotrace 9.3e - New thud command-line option: --out FILE When given this option (or "-o FILE" for short), thud adds the .th files as usual, then does "compile-to FILE", then exits. See examples/lfsr/go, for instance. - Maintenance uses GNU Autoconf 2.61 tarball, prettified source, screenshot, etc. in dir: http://www.gnuvola.org/software/thud/
