NEC-LIST: GC command for NEC2,3, and 4

Hello,

The GC command is the same for NEC2 and NEC3 but
in NEC4 the command is different.

The NEC2/3 version is:

GC 0 0 RDEL RAD1 RAD2

RDEL: ratio of the length of a segment to the length of
      the previous segment in the string
RAD1: Radius of the first segment in the string
RAD2: Radius of the second segment in the string

For NEC4:

GC IX 0 RDEL RAD1 RAD2 DEL1 DEL2

IX: 0 - to specify the ratio of segment lengths (RDEL)
     1 - to specify the length of the first segment (DEL1)
     2 - to specify the lengths of the first and last segments(DEL1 and DEL2)
RDEL: 0 - if IX equals 1 or 2
RAD1: Radius of the first segment on the wire
RAD2: Radius of the last segment on the wire
DEL1: Length of the first segment
DEL2: Length of the last segment

Nittany Scientific has recently placed a table of the NEC2/3/4
commands on their web site. This table displays which commands
are the same in each NEC version and which ones are different.
