Can you tell us what version of Windows you're using, and what
exactly your language setting and code page is? You should be
able to get the language variable information from
from Windows System Properties/Advanced/Environment Variables,
or by typing "set" in a console box.

I've heard of some Spanish-speaking gretl users experiencing this
problem but I'm not able to reproduce it (e.g. on Windows XP
running in Spanish).
