[Gretl-users] Lost strings for bundled string-valued series

Hi all, I am not sure whether this is a bug or following gretl's specs: Putting a string-valued series into a bundle and creating a new series 'foo' using this 'bundled' series yields a numeric series 'foo'. I would have expected the original string-valued series. See the following example. The output is from latest git version on Ubuntu 18.04. <hansl> set verbose off clear open grunfeld.gdt -q bundle Names = _(names = firmname) # put series 'firmname' into a bundle series foo = Names.names # construct new series from bundle print firmname foo -o --range=1:2 </hansl> <output> firmname foo 1:01 General Motors 1 1:02 General Motors 1 </output> Thanks, Artur
