Subject: Problem with Gretl
To: cottrell(a)wfu.edu
Dear Allin:
I have a problem with Gretl for Mac. I installed Gretl from the file
gretl-1.7.8.dmg last week. When I tried the first time, it worked perfectly.
However, when I tried to run it today, I received the following message:
The application gretl_x11 quit unexpectedly.
I have tried everything you suggest in the readme.pdf, but it is not
working. The weird thing is that I was able to run it last week! The problem
is that I am a new Mac user, so I really do not know what to do. I would be
most grateful if you could help me with this issue, since I use Gretl to
teach the introductory econometrics class.
I have a Macbook Pro Intel Core 2 Duo running on Max OS X Version
10.5.2.Other software using X11 - like Octave or R - seem to run
without problems.
(I already suscribed to the mailing list)
Thanks for your help
