-Icarus Verilog is a Verilog simulation and synthesis tool. It operates as a
-compiler, compiling source code writen in Verilog (IEEE-1364) into some target
-format. For batch simulation, the compiler can generate C++ code that is
-compiled and linked with a run time library (called "vvm") then executed as
-a command to run the simulation. For synthesis, the compiler generates
-netlists in the desired format.
-
-The compiler proper is intended to parse and elaborate design descriptions
-written to the IEEE standard IEEE Std 1364-1995. This is a fairly large and
-complex standard, so it will take some time for it to get there, but that's
-the goal. I'll be tracking the upcoming IEEE Std 1364-1999 revision as well,
-and some -1999 features will creep in.
-
-Please note that this package is a development snapshot and while it contains
-the latest and greatest features, it may be buggy as well. There is a separate
-verilog package which is made of the stable releases.
