possible to improve Grads for some deficiencies?

[slovoed slovoed]

Stephen,

thanks for reply.

1. what I mean is pressing the Enter
key after last line, otherwise Grads will not run the last line
2. You are right, but * must be placed after the last symbol without any blanks between them.

I thought these 2 points can be easily solved by code developer, or I hope ...


Slovoed

Slovoed,
1.  Do you mean the expression
"return" or an end-of-line return (as when pressing the Enter
key)?  If the former, "return" required at end of function,
otherwise you should include a "return" (carriage return) after
last line of script.  However, I am referring to Windows versions--don't
know about others.
2.  The * (or #) is not needed
in the first column for commenting.  You can also place it at the
end of a line, for example:

prompt 'What is your name?  '*
Last name only
pull myname
prompt 'What is your age?  '# Age
in whole years only
pull myage

hi,

I have been using Grads for many years. As I know, there
are some deficiencies in Grads I can not slove it since I have no knowledge
about the source code of Grads.

1. on the last line of script, one "Return"
must be added, otherwise it fail to run the last line.

2.  * is used to comment some certain lines in script,
but * must be placed in the first column, otherwide will report the error.
It's not useful to let the script nice-looking and easy to read. Does
it like matlab, * can be placed anywhere for commenting.

The points above might be easily solved by code developer,
aren't they?
