I have managed to run Ubuntu on my tablet on top of Android but the
experience was really bad for me because the connection with Ubuntu is made
through VNC makes it very unstable and sometimes unresponsive.
>"Let me clarify: I don't mean running gretl (with gtk)
directly (and
locally) on the Android _platform_, but on the underlying hardware
device, after having installed Debian/Fedora on it.
(Installation of these Linux distros is likely not trivial, but that's
another topic.)"
I don't think that we will have a real dual-boot between Android and some
Linux distro very soon, maybe Ubuntu Touch will be usable this year (but I
don't know if Gretl runs on it due to it's different X server?)
Also I want to know if it's possible to set the size of the icons in the
gretl toolbar because they are to small to use on a tablet.

Right now those icons are hard-wired to appear at GTK_ICON_SIZE_MENU
(which will generally by 16 x 16 pixels). Most of the icons we show
are standard ones that could easily be resized if we made that
sizing into a variable. But some of them are home-made 16 x 16
pixmaps that would look bad ("pixelated") at any other size.
If somebody with an artistic bent were to take a look at the xpm
files in the pixmaps directory of the gretl source (the 16 x 16 ones
in particular) and produce scaleable (SVG) versions, that would be a
nice service...

It'd be nice if you could make available hi-res versions of
pixmaps/gretl.xpm, doc/figures/gretl-logo.png and doc/figures/hansl-png so
maybe someone could turn those into SVG format.

I converted my first bitmap to SVG and I am happy with the result.
(I've chosen an easy one for start ;))
I have used Inkscape's tool vectorize based on potrace.
More to come.

Very nice conversion -- though as you say this is a relatively easy
one, being mostly geometric.
More to come.
Great, thanks.
