Yes, thanks for the report.That got broken at some point. It's now fixed in
CVS and snapshots.
Thanks a lot.
If I could add a whishlist item, that would be the possibility to remove
the significance parameters from the bottom of the output, and leave
only the table.
And maybe - but I feel this as less urgent - to add to the command line
the formatting possibilities that the GUI exposes under "Tabular
options".

To get control over that sort of thing, use "printf" rather than
"print". E.g.
outfile /home/pietro/my_file --write
printf "%f\n", result
outfile --close
Thanks again, I have another problem with that but I will write in
gretl-users.
