I've reworded DESCR a bit, I think this flows a bit better? == graywolf is a tool for placement and routing used as part of a tool chain for synthesizing digital circuits (VLSI), mainly intended for use used together with qflow (http://opencircuitdesign.com/qflow/). It is a fork of the last open-source version of TimberWolf (which is now commercial software) and has been modified to streamline the build process and make it behave more as a standard command-line tool. It is based on the general combinatorial optimization technique known as simulated annealing and is suitable for standard cell, macro/custom cell, and gate-array professional-grade placement. == Is there anything simple that can be done about all the "format specifies type 'int' but the a rgument has type 'INT' (aka 'long') [-Wformat]" warnings during build?
