Hi,
It's getting close to Christmas so I thought I'd put my Winbugs
wishlist out there. Comments? Priorities?
(In no particular order)
1. "set.seed(n)" implemented as a script command
2. time taken for an iteration run to be printed in the log (perhaps
even as a script command "time.taken('log')"
3. "check('model file')" could be extended so that if 'model file'
equals 'text' it will parse the following text or the text inside a "->
Model <-" (fold) as the model file.
4. similary for data and inits.
5. And the script parser to ignore "-> comment <-" folds
6. A "Do you really want to exit" prompt that can be turned on/off. A
couple of times I have had traces running on full screen and have gone
to close the trace window and accidently closed winbugs - very painful
when I've been running for 36 hours and my data is looking close to
converging.
