Bob,
I didn't mean to suggest moving the text up or any such thing like that. I was 
simply objecting to the 'addition' of the following text in the spec " The user 
may assign any value without any restrictions within the constraints of the 
Type of the variable."

The changes were invoked In BIRD 127.4 as reproduced below:

On pg. 140 replace the following lines:

|   Format: (default is range)
|     Value     <value> Single value data
|     Range     <typ value> <min value> <max value>
|     List      <typ value> <value> <value> <value> ... <value>

with these lines:

|*  Format <data_format> <data>:
|*
|*  Where Format is optional and <data_format> and <data> are required.
|*  <data_format> and <data> must be substituted with one of the following:
|*    Value     <value> Single value data.  Note that Value and Default
|*              (defined below) are mutually exclusive, and must not be used
|*              together for the same parameter.
|     Range     <typ value> <min value> <max value>
|     List      <typ value> <value> <value> <value> ... <value>


So there must have been another BIRD to change the text. Can you or anyone else 
point me to that please?
Thanks,
Ambrish.

Ambrish:

I disagree with your editorial suggestion.

There may be other issues with the definitions of Value, Range, etc.,
but the existing definition is textually formatted in a way that is parallel
to
the other definitions -the argument(s) on the same line and the definition
under it.

Here's another one:
(Page 177)

Value <value>  
Single value data.  The user may assign any value without any restrictions
within the 
constraints of the Type of the variable.

Should be:

Value     <value> Single value data

Thanks,
Ambrish.

Arpad:

Good catch. That could be added to the list of typo corrections.

I think I just found a fairly serious cut and paste error in IBIS v5.1 on
pg. 185.

Both GetWave_Exists and Use_Init_Output has the same exact sentence
for the Definition:

"Tells EDA tool whether the AMI_GetWave is implemented in this model"

While this is correct for the GetWave_Exists, it is quite wrong for
Use_Init_Output...  I think this must be corrected for the next version
of the specification.

Thanks,

Arpad
