Two thoughts: First, gui-gretl's design is good in that the user
needs to specifically allow shell commands in the preferences.
Yes -- in light of that, maybe it's OK to enable shell commands in
functions.
Secondly, Allin's point made me think about command-line gretl.
I mean shell commands are allowed in normal scripts, so what
security exists when a script is executed? Is there a switch
like the one in the gui-preferences?
Shell commands are disabled by default in gretlcli, but they are
enabled in gretlcli if they're enabled via the GUI Preferences
(and then disabled again if they're turned off in the GUI).
There's no separate switch.
