I'm beginning to get cosy with gretl's session concept.
However, after
using it a little bit I'm wondering: when there is a "defined" session
in course (i.e. one that was saved to a .gretl file and hasn't been
ended) the information about the session name doesn't seem to be
available. (Well maybe indirectly via File -> Session files -> first
entry in the recent session files list.) Note the contrast to the name
of the current workfile which is always displayed in the main window (of
course!).
So how about using the line where the workfile name is displayed to also
display the name of the current session (and whether it has unsaved
changes)?
I've now done something in this spirit: if you save your session,
then the title of the gretl main window changes from "gretl" to
"gretl: session_name". Also, making changes in a named session
and re-saving it cause, respectively, an asterisk to
appear (disappear) following the session name in the title bar.
