The SPICE Toolkit

The SPICE Toolkit is comprised of several items.

1. A large collection of user-level application program interfaces (APIs) and underlying subroutines and functions, provided as source code with extensive user-focused documentation (code headers);
2. A ready-to-use library made from the APIs, subroutines and functions described in 1);
3. A small set of ready-built utility (application) programs, along with their associated User Guides, expected to be of use to many SPICE users,
4. A set of technical reference documents—one for each major SPICE functional area; and
5. A few additional documents which describe the contents and structure of a Toolkit package, highlight and provide small usage examples of the most popular APIs, and provide a permuted index based on the abstracts for all modules.

The SPICE Toolkit is offered in the languages listed below. For each language it is available for several computing environments (platform/operating system/compiler). The Toolkit version number shown above applies to all of these environments.

• Toolkits for C
• Toolkits for FORTRAN
• Toolkits for IDL
• Toolkits for MATLAB

SPICE Application and Utility Programs
Any of the SPICE utility and application programs available in the Toolkit may be obtained individually from this location, along with an ASCII version of the associated User's Guide. This collection includes a few additional applications that are NOT provided in the Toolkit packages mentioned above.
