[About the GTK3-based Windows snapshot]

It's automatically shortened under GTK3 too, but apparently not by
enough to compensate for the somewhat narrower "main window" portion
when the console is embedded. I think this should now be fixed in
today's snapshot.
Confirmed!
Honoring the theme setting and/or the language setting still sometimes
seems to require one extra restart. For example, the screenshot shows
Adawaita (I believe), while the theme setting says Windows-10.
I've played around with that a bit and can't provoke a problem --
except when switching between the gtk2 and gtk3 versions, which is to
be expected.
OK
BTW, on Win11 the window edges are more rounded again, so there I
actually even prefer the old Win-7 theme or even Adawaita over the
Windows-10 theme. I guess a usable Windows-11 theme doesn't exist yet
for GTK3?
I don't think so. I too find the Windows 10 theme too angular (and too
unrelievedly white), but Adwaita looks quite nice IMO.
The main window looks OK, yes. But I'm less happy with the buttons and
drop-down widgets in Adwaita, for example in the settings dialog. But
the theming issue will probably resolve itself over time.
In a subsequent post, Sven raised the business of the gtk3 build not
respecting the "Don't start another gretl instance" choice (e.g. when
gretl is already running and you double-click on a gretl script file
on the Desktop). That should now be fixed.
Also confirmed!
What I'm still seeing is that pasting text into the (swallowed) console
from external programs doesn't work. (While it does work within gretl,
e.g. from the script editor to the console.) Not sure right now whether
that is actually a GTK3-only problem.

BTW, I have a generic remark on the tooltip in the function package
dialog. I think I'm referring to the following line in gui/datafiles.c
(although I have no idea what it has to do with data files...):
{ N_("Help"), GRETL_STOCK_PDF, G_CALLBACK(show_package_doc), BTN_DOC },
Since this is only about existing _PDF_ help for a package (as opposed
to text-based help), I think the Tooltip should say "PDF help" or "PDF
doc", not just "Help", otherwise it's a tiny bit misleading. But I'm not
sure whether I have identified the right source line.
thanks
