Documentation typo

To whomever is responsible for the help file (hopefully someone is helping Mike),

In the help file .trans section:

2. Traditional Berkeley Syntax

Syntax: .tran IGNORED TSTOP [TSTART [MAXSTEP]] [UIC|SKIPPB]
Name	    Description	Units
IGNORED2	An ignored value 	s
TSTOP 	    Total amount of time to simulate 	s
TSTART 	    Time to start recording waveform data to disk	s
MAXSTEP 	Maximum time step size to allow 	s
UIC 	    Use initial conditions instead of solving for the initial bias point(SKIPBP)	 
SKIPBP 	    Skip solving for the bias point 	not set
UIC 	    Use initial conditions instead of solving for the initial bias point

The line,

Syntax: .tran IGNORED TSTOP [TSTART [MAXSTEP]] [UIC|SKIPPB]

contains a typo at SKIPPB which should read “SKIPBP” as it does in the body.

I’ll take a bow.

Send it to Mike through email. His email is in QSpice > Help > About Qspice.
Just not sure if he is already on his way to PCIM 2026.
