Description
Using the print more than one line causes a buffer overflow error. And attempting to plot more than one vector at a time causes a buffer overflow error. Unsure if this is two separate issues or one issue.
Version
WRspice Version 4.3.21, (tested in GTK2, QT5)
System Ubuntu 24.04
Steps to replicate print buffer overflow.
In case of print command, open WRspice command line interface and either print something twice or simply enter some math expressions. Using print pi
produces identical results.
WRspice 1 -> pi
pi = 3.141593
WRspice 2 -> pi
*** buffer overflow detected ***: terminated
Received signal 6, exiting.
Printing something that is a single digit, 0-9, gives buffer overflow after three times instead of two. Additionally, printing any statement that is two lines or more like printing a whole vector also causes the crash. If you have vector v(1) from a transient analysis.
WRspice 4 -> print v(1)

Steps to replicate plot buffer overflow.
For the plot command, run any example circuit file that plots multiple vectors with a single line.
The modified example sfq.cir
will run without issue:
V0 1 0 gpulse(0 0 20p 2p 0 40p)
L0 1 2 10p
B0 2 0 100 jj3 ics=0.2mA
R0 2 0 2
.model jj3 jj(level=1)
.control
tran .1p 100p uic
plot v(1)
plot v(2)
.endc
The following will crash with buffer overflow:
V0 1 0 gpulse(0 0 20p 2p 0 40p)
L0 1 2 10p
B0 2 0 100 jj3 ics=0.2mA
R0 2 0 2
.model jj3 jj(level=1)
.control
tran .1p 100p uic
plot v(1) v(2)
.endc
This was tested in GTK2 and QT5 builds with identical results to ensure the plot command was not failing due to GUI issues.
