Re: [Gretl-devel] Testing help with tramolin.gfn package needed

Hmm, xlin.t is supposed to provide most of the content of
sername.txt.
You might try executing Ignacio's shell command directly in a console
window:
cd <dotdir>\tramo\graph\series
echo "ser_adj" > sername.txt
if exist xlin.t. (more +6 xlin.t >> sername.txt)
If that fails, I wonder what happens if you try again without the
trailing dot in "exist xlin.t."
Yes it fails (both variants). I narrowed it down to the 'more' command
which gives the error message "too many arguments in command line"
(re-translated).
Looking at the help (more /?) it seems that the /e switch is needed, and
indeed:
more +6 /e xlin.t
seems to work.
I'm still not sure why the failure only happens on one system. But
indeed the Windows Version number (at the beginning of the cmd.exe
output) is lower on the failing system, even though it is a recent setup
(but in a corporate Windows domain setting with group directives or what
they're called).
Maybe there was a bug in the 'more' in Windows 10 which was fixed in
later versions.
Perhaps the /e switch could be added? Don't know whether there are side
effects, though.
cheers
