Comment:
This is the ticket I mentioned in my recent posting to the other ticket
#9322.
I think I was waiting for Jeroen Demeyer who 5 months ago said he would
look at it after 4.7 was released, but clearly had other things to do (as
have I). I'll add it to my list of things to do.
One issue I do remember is that to make Simon's scripts work here we did a
lot of editing of them (to make them correctly compile with gp2c), and
told Simon what we had done, then as a result he made a new version which
was already gp2c-compatible. So then someone (probably me) has to compare
the versions so as to merge our changes, in effect. For example, one set
of changes I made was to have all the top-level functions take as
parameters all the parameters which Simon currently sets using global gp
variables; this made his functions a lot cleaner to use.
