Re: [Gretl-users] Menu re-structuring
Amen. Here's the deal:
Someone has to design a data structure to hold all the
information on the preferences in gretl's libset.c. This
structure should be flexible enough to make it fairly easy to
add new "set" elements (something we've done a fair amount
lately), yet explicit and uniform enough to permit a simple,
algorithmic formulation of the GUI elements that compose an
"Advanced" Preferences dialog box.
It's not brain surgery, but it is quite time consuming. Any
volunteers?
I wish I was better at programming but I know there is a package
called r-commander. I wonder if it would be possible to use some code
from it for this type of job. Also, it might be worth looking at how
those guys decided on the menu structure. Might give an idea or two.
