No, I didn't.

With current cvs $havempi returns "46" now. But, running the MLE-example of your MPI-gretl-manual gives the error:

? mpibcast(&param)
The MPI library is not loaded
Error executing script: halting
> mpibcast(&param)


Actually, example 1 (bootstrap) returns:

Error: while reading machinefile 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft MPI\Bin\mpiexec.exe': expecting a positive number of cores following the host name.
Data error
*** error in function B_stats, line 1

Thanks for testing. I think there may have been an error in the test for
mpiexec.exe on Windows, which could make $havempi fail: can you try with
today's snapshot? (I guess you didn't really type the extra '$' on the end
of $havempi, did you?)

I don't think so but we may have to explore the rights question if it
still doesn't work with the updated snapshot.
