You're right in that this should probably be thought through a bit further.
Hence, my counter-proposal (which, I admit, does have drawbacks, but is
still preferable IMHO): use "|" for vertical concatenation and switch to
"&&" and "||" for logical operators. It will break existing
syntax, but
it'd be better in the long run.
I personally would hardly be affected, but I think gretl is already
established enough that it should care about backwards-compatibility.
Such syntax instability may scare people away, don't you think?
just an opinion,
