Gretl is not specifically designed to support multiple installations, but it
should be possible to "fake" it. Try deleting
C:\Users\Logan Kelly\AppData\Roaming\gretl\.gretl2rc
before starting gretl.
Ah, on second thoughts that probably won't help. But here's another idea:
set the environment variable GRETL_HOME to either
"C:\Program Files\gretl_cvs" or
"C:\Program Files\gretl"
hen starting the program.
Thanks Allin,
I tried that, but gretl still runns gnuplot from wich ever install was done last. I
haven't tried your first solution yet. Just to check, the GRETL_HOME can be changed
via the GUI through Tools - > Preferences?
I could just use the USB version for one of the installations?
