This is ASCO 0.4.7.1, a slightly modified version of asco 0.4.7.
Download of the original sources at 21.07.2011 from 
http://asco.sourceforge.net/downloads.html

I have added the following chages to the source code:

1) Minor modification to obtain compilation of asco, asco-mpi, asco_test
   and all tools under MINGW (tested with TDM MINGW 4.5.1, 32 bit) 
  
2) Further modifications to allow compilation of asco under MS Visual Studio 2008 

3) ngspice added to the simulators supported by asco

4) ngspice added to the four examples

All these modifications have been tested under Windows XP (32bit) and 
Windows 7 (64 bit) with 32 bit executables.

5) enable the parallel MPI version

Has been tested under Windows 7 on an i7 machine (4 real cores, 8 virtual)

What I did not do so far:
Test under LINUX or other OSs
 
So the files in this distribution are a snapshot, development will go on
(as time allows).
