Editing User Guide

This is the user guide: a collection of articles on how to
use Icarus Verilog effectively. The two major parts cover
working with Icarus Verilog and Icarus Verilog details. The
first part contains articles that describe how and why
things work, and the second part contains more advanced
aspects of using Icarus Verilog. Although both sections
are written in prose with examples, the second section is
more detailed and presumes the basic understanding of
the first part.

== Working with Icarus Verilog ==

These are articles that describe in clear prose, with
examples, the basics of using Icarus Verilog. Each article
covers a significant aspect of using Icarus Verilog in the
real world.

== Add-on Products ==

These are some add-on products and 3rd party utilities that make working with
Icarus Verilog a more complete user experience.

* [[GTKWAVE|GTK Wave]]

:: GTKWave is a waveform/VCD dump viewer that is well supported by Icarus Verilog.

* Covered

:: Covered is a coverage analysis tool. It can be found [http://covered.sourceforge.net/ here].

* [[SIMBUS|Simbus]]

:: Simbus supports distributed simulations of bussed systems.
*[http://potentialventures.github.io/cocotb/ Cocotb]
:: Cocotb uses VPI to embed the Python interpreter into the simulator and provides a Python library for accessing and assigning signal values, traversing the simulation heirarchy and writing regression tests. Documentation is available on [http://cocotb.readthedocs.org cocotb.readthedocs.org]
