Krish,

Haha, funny that you mention that ... I wrote that software, called ADS (for Analog IC Design System), while working at Tektronix. That was the project that I cut my Smalltalk teeth on:)

I started the project using the Tek 4404 in 1985.

When Tektronix got out of the Smalltalk business (another story) I ported ADS to ObjectWorks. I left Tektronix in 1992 to go to work for Digitalk.

The team at Tektronix kept working on ADS, porting it to the newer platforms over time ...

The last time I checked ADS was still being used ... that was around 2005, I think.

So it's had a long and productive lifetime.
