F1.) Allows you to disable a component from the Netlist. Useful for connectors etc.
To exclude a component from the Spice Netlist add [Spice_Netlist_Enabled] user FIELD set to: N
F2.) Allows you to adapt to simulation libraries that require the netlist node
sequence to be in a different order. To reorder the component spice node sequence
add [Spice_Node_Sequence] user FIELD and define sequence: 2,1,0 I am using
LTSpice, but this holds true for any SPICE subcircuit.

themselves are different namespaces.

and scripting. The SWIG DSO/DLLs are built separate from the Sweet DSO/DLL
