Re: [Gretl-users] gretl on OS X: alternative GTK framework

Dear Allin, I installed the new GTK+ on Mac OS X Snow Leopard (or Mac OS X 10.6) and Gretl didn't crash. But I noticed some differences between the new and the old GTK+. The first difference is related with the number of fonts available for use with Gretl (via GUI, Main window -> Tools -> Preferences -> Fixed font or Menu font): New GTK+ Number of fonts available for gretl output windows: 12 Number of fonts available for menus and labels: 43 Old GTK+ Number of fonts available for gretl output windows: 25 Number of fonts available for menus and labels: 233 The second difference is the look 'n' feel of Gretl windows. Please take a look at the attached files Old GTK.png and New GTK.png. IMHO the old one is the best. The third difference is the gnuplot graphs. Please take a look at the attached files Old GTK (gnuplot graph).png and New GTK (gnuplot graph).png. I used exactly the same command to generate these files.
