SLiCAP Schematic Capture — User Manual
==========================================

A graphical schematic editor for **SLiCAP** (Symbolic Linear Circuit Analysis
Program, https://www.slicap.org) and **NGspice**.  It lets you draw a circuit
once and use the same drawing both as a publication-quality figure *and* as a
runnable netlist — keeping design and documentation a single activity rather
than two that must be manually kept in sync.

   A finished schematic: components, wires, net labels, a parameter table and a
   hyperlink annotation — exported straight to the figure you are reading.

.. note::

   This manual is a **draft**.  The boxed images are placeholders; capture the
   screenshots listed in ``docs/images/PLACEHOLDERS.txt`` and drop them in
   ``docs/images/`` to complete it.
