It doesn't work in Spice-style batch mode.  It never did.  It 
has been so long since I looked at that code, that I forgot 
about it.

The "dot commands" are a consession to Spice compatibility.  I 
recommend that you use the two-file method, using I/O 
redirection to read the command file, then put the circuit in a 
separate file.

I am planning to rework the whole command structure, as part of 
Verilog support. For now, a quick fix is not high priority, 
because it will delay the proper fix.
