to compile and link with gretl, right? But where is libgretl.h and
possibly libgretl.lib after running gretl-1.9.7.exe? Are they supposed
to be simple to find?
It's not exactly like that: the exe installer just install the complied
version of the library, the one which the application needs to execute the
libgretl functions. In order to build a C application that uses libgretl,
you need to download the source. You may find this page useful:
