This is a partial revert of 8fa4c483f9.
Actually, the official name is “GNU Octave”, and it is easier to find it under
that name in search engines. So use the full name at a few prominent places,
and use the shorter “Octave” everywhere else.
The workaround consists in appending the names of those macro-directives with a
regular space followed by a zero-width space (U+200B).
An extra LaTeX declaration was also added in order to make this hack work with
the PDF.
Ref. #1707
Under GNU/Linux and macOS, double-quote arguments before passing them to the
shell. In particular, this allows passing single-quotes within those arguments.
We therefore have to escape the four characters that are interpreted within
double-quoted strings in POSIX shells: \, ", $ and `
On Windows, also systematically escape the backslashes.
Also move display of arguments before escaping, so that it remains readable.
Ref. #1696
closes#1696
includes preprocessor changes
- Removed prefixing of doubles between -1 and 1 with 0.
- Fixed bug introduced in 985d742.
- macro processor: simplify handling of `@#define`
The nopathchange is still not supported in this context, so document it.
Also recommend the whitespace-separated syntax instead of the comma-separated
syntax, since the latter is inconsistent with the way options are passed on the
command-line.
Closes: #1667
Note that, for get_mean, the syntax with an optional order is not documented,
because the semantics is different at order 2, and it does not work for higher
orders.
Closes: #1687
The method `desc_addname` adds arguments to the name of the node, and hence does not allow for line breaks. In the case of Dynare commands we don't run into a problem with this but we run into this problem with longer MATLAB/Octave commands.
For Dynare commands, we don't run into the problem with commands running over the page width as we use placeholders like `OPTIONS` since the order of the parameters passed to a command is irrelevant
For MATLAB/Octave commands, the order of parameters passed to a function is important, hence we cannot use a placeholder such as `OPTIONS`
closes#1688
— “ramsey_policy”: bugfix when no option is passed
— various improvements to “epilogue” (preprocessor#36)
— compatibility with Bison 3.5
— bugfix in search for constant equations
— new “planner_discount_latex_name” option of “ramsey_policy” (Closes: #1686)
Accordingly update the MATLAB routines, the testsuite, and the manual.
In particular, “squeeze_shock_decomp” has been renamed to
“squeeze_shock_decomposition” for consistency with other commands.
