I was reviewing close votes and was at first tempted to jump on the bandwagon and close this question (for which the 4 close votes are classifying it as a question about the use of electronics rather than design):
For QuestaSim, what's the difference between vsim.exe and vsimk.exe
But upon more careful consideration, I've definitely seen questions about EE software and tools on the site before and they've generally been acceptable.
To me, this question meets several criteria:
- It's on-topic, as it's related to EE design
- It seems possible to help future visitors/searchers
- This community is probably the best one to ask, short of a product support forum
Possible cons:
- Software updates/better documentation, etc. could render the question obsolete.
- Depending on the software/tool, its applicability for future visitors may be minimal (only two followers of the tag for that tool in question).
What is the consensus on EE software/tool usage questions? Should this question actually be closed?
what's the difference between vsim.exe and vsimk.exe?
and felt that might be useful to others. \$\endgroup\$
