Re: [Gretl-devel] no iteration message after simple count loop

Hi,
today is trivial-questions-day, hope you don't mind.
I'm wondering why the following doesn't print out the usual message about how
many iterations were done:
<hansl>
c = 3
loop c --verbose # or w/o any option
b = 4
endloop
</hansl>
You might say that for a count loop it's a no-brainer how many iterations
there are, but the same would be true for "loop i=1..3", and still we get the
message there. So I'm just asking for reasons of coherency.
Fair point. And given that we have "break" it's actually not a given
now many iterations will be performed. So in git a "count" loop now
prints the number of iterations, like other types, unless --quiet is
given.
