[Gretl-devel] Documentation for the "set" command

Hi everyone, I just committed an update of the documentation for the "set" command, which was quite outdated. Unfortunatly, this will require some extra work for the translators, because I also changed a few strings in lib/src/libset.c. Moreover: 1) the "force_decpoint" settings seems to be used nowhere. I peronally don't remember anything about it. Allin, what do you think we should do? 2) the "BFGSmax" function is undocumented in the "genr" command section, although it receives fairly extensive treatment in the User's Guide. However, documenting "genr" like any other command is maybe a bit difficult nowadays. Maybe we should add a chapter in the User's Guide documenting all the genr functions in alphabetical order. Note that this could be a collaborative effort: the User's guide is in LaTeX, so it's easy to edit for everybody, and the full list of genr functions can be easily retrieved from the source. Opinions? 3) the options that the "restrict" commands accepts are, surprisingly, not listed in commands.xml. This is a harder task than it may seem, since internally "restrict" behaves quite differently depending on what estimation method was last used, and therefore accepts different options. IMHO, none of the above items should be considered release blockers, but it'd be nice if they could be addressed.
