The quick turnaround since the 1.9.10 release is mostly due to
the fact that 1.9.10 contained some build bugs that made life
difficult for packagers. However, there are some fixes and
enhancements in 1.9.11 that should be useful more generally.
2012-11-21 gretl version 1.9.11
- Substantial re-write of code for handling named variables
other than series (matrices, scalars, strings, etc.) in the
interest of maintainability and efficiency
- "restrict" command: try to ensure that standard errors show
as zero when they are in principle zero
- "loop": support use of $-substitution in the expression that
controls a nested loop
- Fix bug: spurious detection of line continuation characters
in #-style comments that do not start a command line
- Fix bug: "eval" not working correctly for anonymous strings
- Fix build bug: "make check" not working properly
- Fix build bug: XDG (desktop) files not getting installed in
a manner suitable for packagers of gretl
- Support a matrix as an element-wise boolean condition for
the ternary "?" operator
- The msortby() function: ensure that it performs a "stable"
sort, such that rows sharing a common key value are never
interchanged
- The inbundle() function: return a code that identifies the
type of a bundled item; also add typestr() function to turn
this code into a string
- GUI: allow resizing of plot windows, using the "+", "-" and
"0" keys (depends on gnuplot's pngcairo driver)
- GUI: fix for "save as..." for session files on Windows
- GUI: fix for right-click in icon view window
- GUI: fix for font selector in the GTK 3 version of the code
