Uhhh, the latest version of OrCad I used was 3.20, IIRC the DOS-6.22
version of 1989, I have never seen a better SDT than that version of
82kB (!) in size (ex libs). I was already wondering if I could import
Calay formatted netlists into pcb-rnd, but I didn't see the option :-(

It was 20 years ago that I used IRC. I'll try to install it. What IRC
program do you advise? I use non systemd Debian testing.
