LINSMITH(1)						      General Commands Manual						       LINSMITH(1)

NAME

       linsmith - Smith charting program, designed for educational use.

SYNOPSIS

       linsmith  [-d opts]

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual  page  briefly documents linsmith.	It was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the original program does not
       have a manual page.  A more complete manual is included (in PDF form) with the installation.

       linSmith is a Smith Charting program, mainly designed for educational use.  As such, there is an emphasis on capabilities that improve  the
       'showing the effect of'-style of operation.

       It's main features are:
	* Definition of multiple load impedances (at different frequencies)
	* Addition of discrete (L, C, parallel and series LC, and transformer) and line components (open and closed stubs, line segments)
	* Connection in series and parallel
	* Easy experimentation with values using scrollbars
	* A 'virtual' component switches from impedance to admittance to help explaining (or understanding) parallel components
	* The chart works in real impedances (not normalized ones)
	* Direct view of the result on the screen
	* Ability to generate publication quality Postscript output
	* A 'log' file with textual results at each intermediate step
	* Load and circuit configuration is stored separately, permitting several solutions without re-defining the other

OPTIONS

       This program is mainly designed for graphical use, and therefore does not have many options. A summary of options is included below.
