        =====
        Intro
        =====
        SimShop is a tool that makes running command line based Verilog simulations
        simple.
        
        SimShop is part of the simulation environment used to run baseline simulations
        of cores purchased from RTLCores_. The simulation environment is included with
        any purchased source level RTL core. It is being released under the BSD license
        for use by anyone who would like an easy way to set up and run Verilog
        simulations.
        
        At RTLCores_, we wanted a way to run simulations on Mac OSX, Linux and Windows
        through a consistent interface. Normally we would just use Make, but using Make
        on Windows requires the installation of Cigwin which, while it's a wonderful
        tool, is a pain for some people to deal with. Python, on the other hand, is
        very easy to install and use on all platforms. There are other reasons to favor
        Python over Make for creating a Verilog simulation environment, but that's a
        much longer conversation.
        
        SimShop is a work in progress, as all software is, with new features being
        added all the time. We at RTLCores_ use it every day with excellent results and
        hope that you will too.
        
        Why command line
        ================
        You may be wondering why we would choose to run simulations via the command
        line. The answer is that more often than not GUIs are a hindrance.  Running
        simulations from the command line keeps your environment agnostic, allows the
        use of simulation grids and makes it much easier to automate various processes.
