From: andrewb@cadence.com (Andrew Beckett)

There is no interface between Matlab and SpectreRF as such -- it really
depends on what you're trying to do here.

If you're talking about importing and exporting waveform data, then you
can do that - use the printvs button in the calculator (don't fill in any
start, stop or step values on the form) and then save the results to a file;
use the table special function in the calculator to read data in again.

These simple ASCII formats should be readable in Matlab without too much
difficulty, and Matlab can export data this way, too.  (I don't remember the
Matlab commands, as it's quite a while since I used Matlab.)
