Hi,
I just noticed that when I try to execute a package ("gears" button) and
no dataset is in place, the sample script is opened instead. From the
point of view of gretl it's perhaps understandable, but I was quite
confused even with all my gretl experience. Presenting an example is
nowhere near the definition of execution IMHO. I'd prefer a message like
"this package needs a dataset in place".
Also, what about packages that don't operate on actual data? I think
there was some discussion about it a while ago, but I don't remember the
conclusion.
thanks,
sven
