gnupic: Thread: gpsim Stimulus Command-Line mode

I can almost get a stimulus file to work, but not quite.

Here it is:

load s td.cod
#that works.
frequency 4000000
#so does that.
stimulus asynchronous_stimulus

initial_state 1
start_cycle 8000000
period 838
{ 419, 0,
838, 1 
}
name tone-a
end
________________________________________
	gpsim takes all that file but I can't seem to attach the
stimulus. Here's what happens:

$ gpsim -c td.stc

gpsim - the GNUPIC simulator
version: Release 0.26.1

	I get the syntax error if the

tone-a attached to rb0

command is after the name command in the stc file or, as I did
in this example, I just typed that in at the gpsim prompt.

	Gpsim appears to be working normally while stepping
through the PIC code.

	Are there any ideas as to what I am doing wrong as the
stimulus files are lifted right out of some of the examples in
the gpsim source.

	This is being run on an up-to-date Debian squeeze
installation that does not run X but has many of the libraries.

	Many thanks.

	I haven't solved the problem yet, but I realized I was
skipping a step and failing to define the nodes. I thought the
nodes were the port connections such as RB0 or RA4 but you
define a node and that node may contain one or more port
connections in it.
