I have had a gretl crash with a complex foreign/R block, and then after that crash the trivial invokations again produced freezes. I have removed some R-related temp stuff from gretl's dotdir and also removed and reinstalled R, and the simple examples now seem to work again. Let's see about the more complex cases... cheers, sven _______________________________________________ Gretl-devel mailing list Gretl-devel(a)lists.wfu.edu http://lists.wfu.edu/mailman/listinfo/gretl-devel
