Some considerations about this new feature after a little using.
- Sometimes, when executing (non-interactively) an R script which
contains syntax errors Gretl crashes after informing the user about
the error.
Here an example is where I'm trying to estimate an APARCH with fGarch.
<i>
library(fGarch)
rr = gretldata[,"rr"]
a = garchFit(~aparch(1,1),data=rr,cond.dist="dged",trace=FALSE)
</i>
- Besides, Gretl does not keep trace of the opened R script, like it
does for normal *.inp files in the recent opened files list. I think
they are supposed to be listed there as well, maybe underlined with a
different color or font.
- Strangely, Gretl does not support the opening of an R script by
simply dragging and dropping the file within the program window. I
have to open it through the graphical menu.
- Last, when I have an R script window opened and I open somehow a new
dataset, the R script window is automatically closed. That is pretty
unfair.
That's all!
