Hi everybody,
since 2023b the 'gnuplot' command has an --outbuf option, which is duly
documented. Then I was reminded (or found out) that it also works for
the 'freq' command. (This question is related to the ticket
https://sourceforge.net/p/gretl/feature-requests/191/.) The background
is that the 'freq' command is one of those commands that are not
directly plotting commands, but are able to also produce a plot as "a
side effect". But for 'freq' the --outbuf option isn't documented.
Does this mean that 'freq' and friends just automatically inherited the
outbuf option from the plotting apparatus, or that outbuf is still
experimental in combination with 'freq' (et al.) and not guaranteed to
stay, or simply that the documentation hasn't been added yet?
thanks
sven
