Hi,
yes I am using it. It is a nice way to past-process some things in an efficient way. I use
gretl to analyse simulation output, so I guess I am not the standard user and I am very
much interested in graphical representations. However, I only clicked on the correlations
button to see what happens ;). Then, while waiting, I consulted the handbook and then
decided to abort.
Thanks for the hint to aggregate (again).
Best
Frederik

Not directly about histograms, but both these things can be done with
boxplots (View / Graph specified vars / Boxplots).

As hinted at in the doc for 'freq', I'm sure there's a clever way how
this can be
done with 'aggregate', but right now I can't tell you :-)

Or a kind of abort button like what we have in script output windows.
But apart from this: So this means you really are using the icon view and the
elements therein?
thanks,
sven
