Re: paper: Drivetrain Acceleration Model

I'm digging up an old thread here, but I wonder if I can ask for tech support with Ether's drivetrain simulator.

I've edited the drivetratinModel.bat file as instructed in the readme, but when I try to run the executable in windows it doesn't write a new file as expected. Running it in the shell (cmd.exe) gives me "error environment variable filename not defined".

I've used this simulator in the past, but I can't remember doing anything differently. It's very handy, if a bit clunky to use. I have a personal rule not to trust any 3rd party calculator unless I can verify it with an independant one. I'd like to run Ether's code to verify the WCP calculator (http://www.wcproducts.net/how-to-drivetrain/) and to plot some acceleration curves.

This reminds me that I've been meaning to build a GUI for Ether's code...
