Great Allin,
It worked, for the search didn’t crash gretl. You are a genius!
I wish I can be your apprentice and learn all about computer and econometrics. :)
Since the search is working on my MacBook Pro, my further question is (he never stops does
he):
1 how to limit the search to just within a folder?
2 how to limit the search to a file type?
3 how to change the search from by file content to by name, and vice versa?
