The bulk of this message is nit picking; so first I'd like to thank Jim
for making GDCT much more robust under 3.13.
1) Yesterday I resurrected a database which I had last used in EPICS
3.12. The associated graphics file had been trashed by errant GDCT
behaviour and I was attempting to restore it via the now "hidden"
records. GDCT creates items in the .DB file with the designation GRECORD.
Unless these are changed to RECORD, they cannot be found with the SHOW
button during record creation.
It would be really neat if that were in the documentation.
2) Often names include macro specifications, and the record name exceeds
28 characters, even though the name after macro expansion is shorter than
28 characters.
It would be nice if GDCT would accept those.
3) I can still get segmentation faults by creating duplicate records.
(Not that I think this is a good idea, but my flailing while discovering
(1) above lead to this discovery).
It would be nice if GDCT presented an error messge and continued.
