This is in the log on the website, but I thought I'd alert people
here too.
For gretl 1.8.5, I'm removing the --long option to gretl's "print"
command along with the associated longdigits parameter for the
"set" command.
These things date back to a time before gretl has a "printf"
command. Reviewers remarked that one couldn't readily print out a
gretl variable to more significant digits that were offered by
"print". That was true at the time, but you can now use printf to
examine a variable to as many digits as you want (and we also have
GUI means of showing more digits).
So I think we can retire "--long" and "longdigits", in the
interest of removing redundant baggage from the gretl codebase.
