[Help-gnucap] Can't assign diode models in batch mode

[Anthony Anconetani]

Hello everyone,

I hope you all are doing well. This is my first time posting. I've just
started using gnucap this past week.

Here is my question. I'm trying to read in a netlist and commands in batch
mode. I have a file that called test_schematic2.sim.

The file contains:

.model 1N414 D IS=2e-14
Vcc  1   0   5
Dx   1  10   1N414
Dy  10  20   1N414
Dz  20  30   1N414
Rd1 10   0   1k
Rd2 20   0   1k
Rd3 30   0   1k

.print dc v(10) v(20) v(30)
.dc Vcc 0 5 0.5 >eg6.dat
.end

I then run:

>gnucap -b test_schematic2.sim

I do not receive the output file eg6.dat.

If I go into gnucap and pull the file in as follows:

gnucap>  <test_schematic2.sim

I get the following message:

.model 1N414 D IS=2e-14
Dx: can't find model: 1N414

However, I can generate the model from inside of gnucap by using the build
command.

Can you tell why I cannot get gnucap to recognize the diode model through
the batch mode?

Thanks, and I hope I'm not wasting your time with something obvious.
