Re: [Gretl-devel] Problem with the gretl parsing inside a foreign block

Artur and I wanted to try something with Ox, but we ran into an

It seems the gretl parser is trying to enforce its rules for other
foreign languages as well.
Some months ago the script that now produces this error worked (I
think). The error appears both on Win and on Linux.
This seems to be specific to using Ox (and presumably other languages,
if relevant) inside a function. If you put the same foreign-Ox code
into the "main" portion of a hansl script it works OK. I'll look into
it.
