Since that's about the extent of my ability to contribute,
I'll take that on. Can you point me to the current docs
home?

If this functionality is going to be developed, it might be
more effective to go with the concept of a "wrapper" and
a "core"; the two are pretty different in their purposes.
The simulator might just need a few hooks and some looking
into data structures, and the wrapper could be a separate
development (interactive command interface, netlist
preprocessor crunching the variables and generating the
SPICE fixed netlist, namespace mapping, and output
processing / graphics). If you can make the ng-spice
simply accessible, that may be all that's needed internal
to the engine.

I seem to vaguely recall seeing some mentions of previous
attempts to make SPICE wrappers, but nothing clear. Maybe
there's comething out there that's a starting point.
