Subject: MAGIC ver 6.3 -----Problems in resistance extraction

  (1)In MAGIC  ver 6.3 when I do command
 "extract all",and later ext2sim , the .sim file has no R lines although
  extractor "do" options include resistance. 
  
  (2) I try to
  improve resistance extraction with "extresis" command after
  I have .sim file [as described in man pages of ver6.3], extresist command
  gives warning "FET RESISTANCE IGNORED OR SET TO 0 IN TECHNOLOGY FILE" and 
  it gives no output.(i.e.  .res.ext file has no lines in it.)
  
    [ I have to give additional command :select then it extracts 
    all resistances to 0.000000 etc.]

   (3) I wish to run resistance extractor EXTRESIS with MAGIC -d NULL
   option because accurate resistance extraction is part of my software.
   If I give :SELECT command in source file for MAGIC and then EXTRESIS, I
   think that it will work. Is there an error in this approach?

Thanks a lot
