NAME

       sw2asc - converts a SWITCAP2 output file into ASCII data files that other tools can read

SYNOPSIS

       sw2asc -c|--copyright

       sw2asc -h|--help

       sw2asc -V|--version

       sw2asc switcap.out

DESCRIPTION

       The  sw2asc  program  reads  the switcap.out output file produced by SWITCAP2 and produces a set of ASCII
       datafiles which can be more easily loaded into various waveform plotting programs.

       Data generated by SWITCAP2 "PRINT" statements is; extracted and written to an output  file  in  an  ASCII
       format  which  can be directly loaded by the gwave waveform viewer or more easily loaded into a tool such
       as scilab , octave , grace, , or matlab

       If multiple analyses are in the SWITCAP2 output file, then they are written  to  individual  files.   The
       output  file  names are derived from the input file name by appending ".{SSS,TRAN}.#.asc"" to the name of
       the input file.  SSS is used for Sinusoidal Steady State analysis output and TRAN is used for.  TRANsient
       analysis  output.   # corresponds to the analysis number (ie if you have 3 SSS analyses in your file, you
       will end up with .SSS.1.asc, .SSS.2.asc, and .SSS.3.asc.
