[Gretl-users] model table news

In response to Talha's suggestions, gretl CVS and the current 
Windows snapshot incorporate these changes in relation to the
"model table" feature:

* You can add up to 12 models to the table.

* In the GUI, the text in the model table window does not wrap, 
instead you get a horizontal scrollbar if the table is too wide.

* In TeX mode, if there are more than 6 models the table is put 
into landscape.

* The default formatting spec for TeX material in gretl uses the 
"11pt" option for the article document class, which IMO makes for 
easier reading on-screen.  But for the model table we now leave 
the font size at the TeX default of 10-point, to increase the 
chances of big tables fitting on the page.

* The TeX model table now uses the "longtable" package, so if you 
have a table with lots of regressors, the table should break 
gracefully over the page.

TODO: Not all of these changes (in regard to TeX) are handled 
properly (yet) if you're using a customized gretl TeX preamble.
But that shouldn't be too hard to fix.

Allin.
