@Belal Ali I think your above example with alterparam should work if you set the alterparam line as:
alterparam vgs=$&vgs_act
Let me know if this works. From section
17.1
of the `ngspice user manual`: The csh-like scripting language is active in .control sections. It works on ‘strings’, and does string substitution of ‘environment’ variables. You see the csh at work in ngspice with set foo = "bar"; set baz = "bar$foo", and in if, repeat, for, ... constructs. However, ngspice processes mainly numerical data, and support for this was not avail- able in the c-sh implementation. Therefore, Berkeley implemented an additional type of variables, with different syntax, to access double and complex double vectors (possibly of length 1). This new variable type is modified with let, and can be used without special syntax in places where a numerical expression is expected: let bar = 4 * 5; let zoo = bar * 4 works. Unfortunately, occasionally one has to cross the boundary between the numeric and the string domain. For this purpose the $& construct is available – it queries a variable in the numerical let domain, and expands it to a c-sh string denoting the value. This lets you do do something like set another = "this is $&bar". It is important to remember that set can only operate on (c-sh) strings, and that let operates only on numeric data. Convert from numeric to string with $&, and from string to numeric with $. There is a nice tutorial here.
