Re: [Gretl-devel] packages: no-dataset-ok but still error about no dataset?

Hi,
I'm a bit confused about the situation with the package FEP (current
version). We specified no-dataset-ok and the info window of the package (1.3)
says "Data requirement: none". However, when I "execute" the package
from the
listing window I get an error window "Please open data file first".
This does not happen with other packages that don't need a dataset.
However, FEP specifies a GUI main function, and the other packages don't seem
to do that (e.g. extra.gfn, corresp.gfn), so maybe that's the difference?
Hmm, not sure but I'll look into it. Maybe has something to do with
the fact that the FEP package includes a data file? (Though that
shouldn't in itself have the effect described.)
