# Logs:
# 2009/02/24   bug fix: a very special case causes wrong sink idenfication
# 2009/02/18   added a switch "-b" to ignore blockage violation
# 2009/02/16   bug fix: ".print tran" cannot take more than 71 arguments
# 2009/02/16   bug fix: remove segmented wire resistance
# 2009/02/03   node coordinates don't have to be integer, use \S instead
#              we can also use [-+]?[0-9]*\.?[0-9]+([eE][-+]?[0-9]+)? if needed
# 2009/01/31   handles the 15-column reporting of ngspice for 14+ voltage points
# 2009/01/31   added long interconnect segmentation to be < 500um
#              this is to account for the "shielding effect of the interconnect resistance"
# 2009/01/31   added blockage checking 
# 2009/01/30   added checks about source id, sink id, buffer type and wire code
# 2009/01/18   fixed the bug of buffer-added-to-source, when source is (-1, -1)
# 2009/01/10   fixed the bug of blockage reading
# 2009/01/08   first release
# 2009/01/01   Created
#              - Thanks for the help (ngspice/tcl examples) from Zhuo Li, lizhuo@us.ibm.com
