Could you send me a pointer why this happens? You have to (in cshell) source the file alc_env.csh as it is written in the Alliance README to set the variable RDS_TECHNO_NAME Also write :- What is the actual command line syntax to Run GRAAL individually for Spice Format and EDIF format. Graal is a layout editor, so you can only edit layouts whith it. -- Sincerely, Olivier. ==================================================================== Olivier SIROL Alliance Team ASIM/LIP6/UPMC Coul. 55-65, 2e etg, Bur. 213 75252 Paris Cedex 05 mailto:Olivier.Sirol@lip6.fr Tel: (33/0) 1.44.27.74.78 http://asim.lip6.fr/~czo/ Fax: (33/0) 1.44.27.72.80
