Thank you,
I am updating my cran R Rgretl package
It will have a possibility to save from R
data frames in all gretl-supported formats
so I tried all I found in GUI export menu
In several days anybody will have a
possibility to have, say World Penn table,
version 9 as .gdt (~3 mb) running
one simple command
Also, I have noticed that help store
somewhat dated: In some cases
(besides double .dat) one need to
input both the extension an --option
To be succesful I used GUI first
then looked at Command log
This way was always succesful

Ah, contrary to what I said earlier, I see we do have a special 
import mechanism for .m files in place, from many years ago. I guess 
it hasn't been used in a long time, because the crasher bug stared 
me in the face when I looked at the code: it was a sure crash 
regardless of the content of the file. That's now fixed in git.

Anyway, our ability to import data from .m files is basically 
limited to those written by gretl -- and the data come in as a 
dataset, not a matrix. I think it was the right move to delete 
Octave from the GUI list of import formats, but this will now work 
OK (apart from losing the dates in the original data):

<hansl>
open bjg
store bjg.m --gnu-octave
open bjg.m
print -o
</hansl>

Allin
