I have recently noticed 2 small annoyances:
1)- I have a dataset involving dates between 1998-2007. Observations
are twice a year (June and November)
Nomatter what I tried i wasn't able to make gretl recognize this
properly as a time series.
I cant even make this recognized as 6monthly data.
Trying a format such as 11/01/98 results in the data not recognized as
time-series at all.
Trying 1998:1... resullts in a quarterly data ending in 2002.
2)- When I create scatter plots, the fitted line is in blue, however,
once saved as eps, it becomes green, which is difficult to see using a
projector.
Cheers,
Talha

Jack answered this one.
2)- When I create scatter plots, the fitted line is in blue,
however, once saved as eps, it becomes green, which is difficult
to see using a projector.
This is tricky, but is fixed for most cases in current CVS.

It seems something has been broken about saving .eps graphs.
In Kubuntu Linux, if I try to save a graph as .eps I obtain the error:
"Gnuplot error creating graph"
I also executed gretl from a xterm and tried again to save an .eps graph.
I obtained the following errors at the console:
get_png_bounds_info(): failed
stderr: ' "/home/etpdihei/gretl/gptout.tmp", line 13: undefined variable:
rgb'
gretl_errmsg: '"/home/etpdihei/gretl/gptout.tmp", line 13: undefined va
riable: rgb'
Failed command: '"gnuplot" "/home/etpdihei/gretl/gptout.tmp"'

Ah, we've hit another case where syntax differs across versions of
gnuplot: the "rgb" thing works with gnuplot 4.2 and higher, but
not with 4.0. I'll take another look at the issue.
