I've written both a text-based ANSI-C version, and one with an X
Windows interface using Motif. The X version uses sliders so that you can
play with three parameters (impedance, thickness, dielectric constant) and
see what kind of impact each has on the output tracewidth.
I just put this together in an evening, and so it's a little rudimentary.
However, I'll keep working on it as I find time, because the next version of
this port will allow you to fix any pair of parameters to see how errors in a
third affects the fourth. For example, it might be interesting to see how
the impedance varies if you fix the thickness and dielectric constant, and
vary the tracewidth.
