OK, I'll check. Is this on Windows or Linux?
Allin.

Sorry, please give me some time to test it. May be the problem is that the
string "@seats" for the seats executable is not defined. But Allin, How are
the @tramo and @seats strings determined? They are not set up in the
preferences. (and I think they should be there )
Well, finally I think gretl works correctly, waiting for each call to the
(Linux/Windows) shell finish before executing the following one.
It seems that my problem was caused because gretl does not assign
the "@seats" string correctly in Windows. See the console output below:
---------
consola gretl: teclee 'help' para obtener una lista de instrucciones
? print "@tramodir"
C:\Documents and Settings\Ignacio\Datos de programa\gretl\tramo
? print "@tramo"
c:\userdata\tramo\tramo.exe
? print "@seats"
@seats
?
