> When I wrote gnet-spice-noqsi, I didn’t anticipate how it would change my design flow. It can generate a subcircuit from the same symbol/attribute conventions that the gnetlist core uses when expanding hierarchy. As a consequence, it is very convenient to make the first draft of a subsystem as a subcircuit. It’s much handier to instantiate the subsystem in a test schematic of SPICE-specific components than to mix SPICE components with physical components. One result is that my top level schematics look more like block diagrams.

Yes convience to make first draft is the strongest point by gEDA. I guess you instantiate you subcircuit in one schemtic for simulation in sort of like a test bench and in the schematic for the layout. Then you do your simulations I guess you also have to fine tune schematic values which is very simple since complete information "thick binding" is added later.

This is the way I sometimes work with software, I write a testbench in a subdirectory and the function may be called from both real software and testbench.
