Re: Re: [Gretl-users] Periodogramm and spectrum are not working
Andreas,
AFAIR most of those bugs occurred back in the days when scripts did not require periods as
decimal separators. That was the reason why scripts are not (allowed to be) localized
anymore.
Can you give some examples of bugs that are exclusively due to gretl's GUI being
localized?
Personally I don't use localized decimal separator settings, but I believe that
gretl's localization feature is a big plus for many international users. Students can
focus on the statistics instead of learning new ways to write numbers, for example. So I
would be reluctant to ditch it.
cheers,
sven

IMHO, this internationalization case (using , instead of .) has caused too
many bugs and thus it should be abandoned: Always require the use of .
instead of ,
Best regards
