Also, if you are interested in analog circuit simulation in general,
you could take a look at Gnucap. Gnucap is a reasonably complete
open-source analog simulator which is a little more sophistocated than
SPICE. The code is also a lot cleaner, and so may be easier to
understand. Again, it's open source, so you can see and explore the
internals.

Here's the URL:

Rather than the 0.34 release, grab the latest snapshot available under
"development releases".
