Great, I will test today!
The translation seems fine and breaks nothing AFAICS.
However, I did experience what was maybe an infinite loop problem. I'm
not saying it's new, because I discovered it by mistakenly typing a line
I didn't really mean.
A two-liner is enough to demonstrate:
<script>
open [a data file with >500 variables, >200 obs each]
print
</script>
And gretl doesn't respond anymore (on Windows, with the snapshot that is
already versioned as 1.7.5), with CPU at 100%.
Of course I can't prove it's really due to the number of variables, but
that's what comes to my mind given what 'print' does. By construction
the file is a bit large for the mailing list, but of course I can send
it off-list if needed.
good night,
