In net gen when there is a port name with a

.

in it, it's escaped as

\xxx.yyy

in verilog and not in spice. And this causes pin matching to fail because netgen leaves the escaping char in the name.

Do you have a simple example you can share?

@Tim Edwards Sure, here's the simplex example I could come up with.

@tnt: Netgen version 1.5.286 now supports matching verilog escaped strings against the equivalent non-escaped string.

Nice, thank you for the quick fix.
