[Gretl-devel] make it easier to specify panel dimensions for a new dataset in the GUI

Hi, when creating a new panel dataset from the GUI, gretl wants to know N*T first. Actually, for something like N = 827 and T = 48 this isn't so easy to tell, need to grab pencil and paper or a calculator first. Wouldn't it be possible if gretl asked separately for N and T? The default settings in the dialog could be 1 for both, and leaving one of them at 1 would obviously yield a cross section or a time series. The new dialog could also contain hints like "leave at 1 for time series" or something like that. thanks sven
