Re: [Gretl-users] settable variables

Another thing that IMO needs doing is incorporating ad-hockeries into the "settable variables" framework. Case in point: boxplots. I plan to do some work on those after release, but one thing may (and IMO should) be done before that, that is, getting rid of the .boxplotrc file. Even with all the affection I have for this very unixy style of doing things, I think it really should be possible to modify those settings from within gretl proper. In other circumstances, I would just have moved all those settings into lib/src/libset.c and modified gui2/boxplots.c accordingly[*], but as things stand now I'd rather have Allin's opinion on this beforehand. Is there any other similar instance you guys can think of? [*] Is there anyone out there who still uses gtk 1? If I must speak my mind, i'd just say, rest in peace, gui/*. The consequent code cleanup would be massive, but well worth the effort. Riccardo "Jack" Lucchetti Dipartimento di Economia Facoltà di Economia "G. Fuà" Ancona
