I hold a set of Boolean configuration options for an entire pingspice run. Request an option as an attribute. The value will be False if not set.

Instance Variable	quiet	Prevents logging or printing anything. Overrides verbose, chatty, spew, and hardcore.
Instance Variable	verbose	Prints a small amount of Ngspice status output.
Instance Variable	chatty	Prints a bit more status output than normal.
Instance Variable	spew	Include details about STDIO communiction with Ngspice (for pingspice debugging.)
Instance Variable	hardcore	Include an insane amount of details about STDIO communiction with Ngspice (for increasingly rare in-depth pingspice debugging.)
Instance Variable	nodes	Log info about the nodes connected for each `Include` and `Subcircuit` constructed for analysis. Default is `False`, because this can result in a lot of info clogging up your logs.
Instance Variable	console	Drop to a primitive console upon an Ngspice error, for netlist debugging.
Instance Variable	source	Prints the original source (without any alterations).
Instance Variable	study	If using an analyzer, have it create a netlist file for study upon an Ngspice error.
Instance Variable	study_stop	Exit after creating a netlist file for study.
Instance Variable	study_best	Have `Solver` write a netlist file for each setup of the best parameter combination reported to it.
Instance Variable	devel	If using an analyzer, have it create a netlist for study after every analysis, unless a netlist file is already there for that setup. This is intended for development purposes.
Instance Variable	keep	If using an analyzer, have it set the 'keep' pingspice-only simulation option to keep any files generated for the netlist. Implied by study and study_best and the options that imply those options, devel and study_stop.
Instance Variable	warn_err	Consider warnings to be errors (for development purposes).
Instance Variable	fail	Where a `Deferred` is awaiting a result, run its errback upon an Ngspice error.
Instance Variable	stop	Stop everything upon an Ngspice error.
Instance Variable	waitmsg	Include a "WAITING..." message and follow-up "DONE..." when Ngspice is taking a while.
Instance Variable	full	Have Ngspice save a full suite of all its simulation vectors (can take up a lot of RAM).
Instance Variable	et_sse	Have `evaluate` return an instance of `ErrorTabulator` as the SSE instead of a float. This works the same since it will evaluate as a float, and there's no performance penalty. (Speed is the same!) Allows you to see details about any significant inconsistency between SSE reported and the SSE that `Solver` recomputes, which should never happen now that all the lock/release has finally been figured out.
Instance Variable	xsse	Set `True` to abort an evaluation if the challenger's SSE exceeds the target SSE. Can speed things up if your paramfinder has very slow setups numbered higher than faster ones.
Instance Variable	debug	Force single-core, no-wire operation and write every line of STDIN, STDOUT, and STDERR to text files STDIN.log, STDOUT.log, and STDERR.log. Obviously, for debugging only.
Method	__init__	`Config(enabledSet)` or `Config(**kw)`
Method	__repr__	Undocumented
Method	__getstate__	Undocumented
Method	__setstate__	Undocumented
Method	isEnabled	Returns `True` if the named option is enabled, directly or by implication.
Method	__getattr__	Undocumented
Method	copy	Returns a copy of me with the same options enabled as I currently have. If you change any of my options, it does not affect those of the copy, and vice-versa.
Method	check	Raises an exception if name is not one of my options.
Method	any	Returns `True` if any of the named options are enabled, directly or by implication.
Method	all	Returns `True` if all of the named options are enabled, directly or by implication.
Method	none	Returns `True` if none of the named options are enabled, directly or by implication.
Method	enable	Enables all of the options named as arguments, first checking that they are in fact the valid names of options.
Method	disable	Disables all of the options named as arguments, first checking that they are in fact the valid names of options.
