Hi Genna and all,
regarding the gnucap-mot-adms model compilator, I'm trying to compile
(following the model_add.howto) this simple model:

`define P(txt) (*txt*)
`include "discipline.h"
`include "constants.h"

module vamp (in, out) ;
input in ;
output out ;
voltage out , in ;
parameter real GAIN_V=10.0 from [0:inf] ;
                `P(info="Gain (times)");
analog begin
begin
V(out) <+ GAIN_V * V(in) ;
end
end //analog
endmodule

//
But found this error at the point of doing make -f Makefile.gnucap:

vampguesstopology.c: In function 'vampguesstopology':
vampguesstopology.c:37: error: 'vampinstance' has no member named
'PTR_J_out_in_required'
make: *** [vampguesstopology.o] Error 1

Seems like something is missing other than adding/modifing the
wraper.h and the gnspiceVersion.xml. Just in case, I attach the
modifications I did on them at the end of the mail. I wonder if adms
is intended to do what I am trying to do, instead of device types
(like transistors, resistors, sources, etc), because I don't know
which  device type letter should I choose for an amplifier, or any
other circuit.

Ok, sorry for the long mail, thank you.
Regards,
Leandro.
