CODAS for windows

[reggie]

Hi all,

Many years ago when I was a student, I use a control systems
simulation package called CODAS. I think it was freeware DOS
application.

Does anyone know where I can get hold of a windows version?

Thanks,

Reggie.

Try looking at www.octave.org They have a control systems modeling
package. It may do what you want.

**Direct** control of those legacy ports under NT-based Windoze
is not possible.

Even Wine is more Windows compatible than Vista.

All well written Windows programs work just fine under Wine. I run
LTspice on an x86_64 using wine and I'd swear it is faster than under
XP.

Well, if you use enough wine, everything looks faster. ;-)
