Hi,
with 1.7.0 (and before that, too, I think) having an 'include' command in a
script without an open datafile caused an error message along the lines "you
have to open a datafile first".
Are you sure? The list of commands that is available before a dataset is
open resides in the function ready_for_command(), which is near the end of
the file lib/src/interact.c; thanks to the marvelous piece of software
that cvs is, I was able to establish that the include command has been
legal in that context since May 2005.
By the way, the above list contained a spurious space for the "man"
command. Just fixed in CVS.
