Re: [Gretl-devel] multiple gretl instances once again

Allin, This works fine with the latest Windows snapshot. PS -----Original Message----- From: gretl-devel-bounces(a)lists.wfu.edu [mailto:gretl-devel-bounces@lists.wfu.edu] On Behalf Of Allin Cottrell Sent: Wednesday, May 01, 2013 5:32 PM To: Gretl development Subject: [Gretl-devel] multiple gretl instances once again Despite what I said a couple of weeks ago, I think I've now found a reasonably reliable way of showing sequence numbers in the gretl title bar when the user has two or more instances (copies) of gretl running simultaneously. Here's what's supposed to happen. The first gretl instance is always just titled "gretl". The next concurrent instance is titled "gretl (2)", the next again, "gretl (3)", and so on. There's an ambiguity over what happens if, say, you have "gretl" and "gretl (2)" running, then you close the first instance, then you start another. The ambiguity is resolved in this way: the new instance will have a sequence number 1 higher than the highest-numbered running instance, so in the case just indicated it will appear as "gretl (3)". I believe this is now working on all OSes, but it would be nice to have that confirmed (using CVS/snapshots, of course).
