10.3.34 Rspice: Remote ngspice submission

General Form:

          rspice input file

Runs a NGSPICE remotely taking the input file as a NGSPICE input file, or the current circuit if no argument is given. Nutmeg or Ngspice waits for the job to complete, and passes output from the remote job to the user's standard output. When the job is finished the data is loaded in as with aspice. If the variable rhost is set, nutmeg connects to this host instead of the default remote Ngspice server machine. This command uses the "rsh" command and thereby requires authentication via a ".rhosts" file or other equivalent method. Note that "rsh" refers to the "remote shell" program, which may be "remsh" on your system; to override the default name of "rsh", set the variable remote_shell. If the variable rprogram is set, then rspice uses this as the pathname to the program to run on the remote system.

Note: rspice will not acknowledge elements that have been changed via the "alter" or "altermod" commands.
