To be honest, apart from having a well defined exchange format when
several programming languages are mixed I don't understand the value
added over storing what you need in a bundle (which is gretl-only,
obviously).
Fair enough, for pure gretl purpose, a bundle would be the natural
alternative. But as you said, the json may be also used for other
software packages ensuring one has the same configuration.
Talking about mixing programming languages, maybe some of the json
stuff
could be leveraged for gretl's 'foreign' interface. What I mean is an
easier or more flexible way to pass stuff from gretl/hansl to the
foreign language (Python, Julia, etc.).
Very good idea! For instance, for R and Python there exist json
read/write functions. Guess that would be an interesting project for future.
Best,
Artur
