| Aug 8, 2020 at 1:20 | comment | added | LSpice | Unfortunately one person's clear, intuitive notation is another person's awkward mess—or even, as I discovered when re-visiting my own notation later, the same person's awkward mess when the purpose to which it is to be applied shifts ever so slightly. | |
