I am playing with Gretl 1.8.6cvs on Mac OS X 10.6.2.
1. Bug?
Load a script: two Gretl windows are now open (Main + script)
The View menu is not activated but I do have two gretl windows open.
True. I had thought that with no datafile open people would not
tend to lose track of windows, but for the sake of consistency the
/View/Windows menu should be accessible in this case. It is now,
in CVS.
2. Why Scalars?
It was just an easy place to put the "Scalars" item, but again,
not very consistent. Fixed in CVS.
3. Window switching
I believe that is up to the OS/Desktop/Window manager. I'd rather
not get into that.
As it stands now, I feel that the Window menu is a bit too
buried in the View menu. A main menu entry Windows could be
considered.
I tried that, but felt that (as Sven said) it was really one
top-level menu too many.
Allin.
