(maybe, small) bug
by Cristian Rigamonti
Hi, I've just compiled the latest CVS following this procedure
(on Linux):
cd (root cvs directory)
mkdir build
cd build
../configure --enable-build-doc
make
su -c 'make install'
All went well, the program works fine, but I get this warning message in the
xterm window:
helpfile error: word='critical' not recognized
This happens using the C (us) locale; if I use the it locale, I get:
helpfile error: word='critical' not recognized
helpfile error: word='seed' not recognized
helpfile error: word='critical' not recognized
Is this some kind of bug, or I missed something in the compilation procedure
(maybe I should compile something in the /doc directory)?

Trouble compiling Gretl.
by Hélio Guilherme
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
Dear All,
First of all I announce myself.
I am Helio Guilherme, I am graduated in Operations Research, I have been
contributing to Gretl with translations to Portuguese (web site and
gui/cli).
Compiling Gretl was never a straight forward task to me. I had trouble
with F77 and LAPACK, and today installed MPFR, but gretl does not find
it. Must be something to do with paths :(.
Well, more important is this current compiling errors:
helio@techno:~/gretl-1.6.0/gretl> make -k

- ----
Please be aware that before this it was stopping at the
../lib/src/geneval.c, reporting that have no rule to build geneval.lo. I
manage to build all of them (geneval genfuncs genlex gensyntax genmain).
With this info, can you help me?
Thank you,
Helio Guilherme

Arima session bug
by Ignacio Díaz-Emparanza
Hi,
one of my colleagues discovered a new bug in Gretl (official 1.6.0) in
Windows, and I can see that the same thing occurs in Linux:
1- Open a time series dataset (for example data3-6)
2- Estimate an ARIMA model for one of the variables.
3- In the model window, select "File/save to session as icon"
4- In the main window, go to "session files" and click on "save session as"
and write a name.
5- Close Gretl.
6- Open Gretl again,
7- select "File/session files/"
8- open the previously saved session, and
9- double-click on "Model 1", then --> ¡¡ gretl exits !!

Re: man pages
by Cristian Rigamonti
Hi, do we have a rough estimate for the time of the next release?
I was wondering about updating the gretl.1 man page (and perhaps adding a
gretlcli.1 page); can I start working on that?
Actually I've noticed that gretl and gretcli support almost the same options.
The following are supported by both gretl and gretlcli
-e --english
-q --basque
-b --batch
-h --help
-v --version
-r --run
The following are supported only by gretl
-d --db
-w --webdb
-c --dump
The -p | --pvalue option is supported only by gretlcli
(this is weird: I can't find this one in lib/src/interact.c, parseopt()
function, which I used to track available options, nor in other files in my CVS
copy...)
So we could either make gretlcli support -d, -w, -c and mention it in the
current gretl manpage, or add a new manpage for gretlcli (maybe there are other
reasons for that, besides the difference in supported options).

The idea to have a crosscorrelation function is very nice and usefull.
I hope that it will be included in "wiew" gretl menu.
Thnx
