Well, my test case is quite simple. This is with yesterday's snapshot on
Win 7.
Under C:\Benutzer\sven-schreiber\Dokumente I created a new directory
"gtest".
(Equivalently in the Windows cmd.exe shell it shows as the non-localized
variant C:\users\sven-schreiber\Documents\gtest. Perhaps the language
issue on Windows plays a role, I don't know.)
Because it's a new directory, gretl's CWD is something quite different.
In that dir I save a file gmain.inp which contains just "include
helper.inp". That file helper.inp is also in there next to gmain.inp,
and it contains the line 'print "helper!"'.
When I click the run (cogwheel) button in the script editor for the
gmain.inp file I get the error "Error reading helper.inp" (in German
translation).
Then I set the CWD to the gtest directory, and I get as an echo the path
of helper.inp, and the printout: helper!
In other words, then it works.
thanks,
sven
