* 100 mA
* 20V pk sinewave, 20 kHz
* change the signal source to a 20 kHz sinewave, 1 V peak
* set transient to 400us to capture 8 cycles
* run the sim and click on Vout
* point to the collector node of Q1 and Alt click on it
* this reveals Q1's collector current
* it falls near zero, dangerously close to slew limiting
* mouse over C1 and click to see its current
* Alt click on the wire to Q4's base for its current
* most of the signal current is flowing in C1
* increase signal level to 1.3 V peak and re-run
* plot the current in Q1's collector wire
* see that it is clipped, indicating slewing
* plot the input differential error voltage
* drag the probe from base of Q1 to base of Q2
* see the large error voltage when slewing
* Alt click on Q10's collector wire
* see the class-AB half-wave waveform
* clear the current trace with scissors on trace lable
* click somewhere in the plot display to make it active
