[Gretl-users] problems with gretl libr foreign blocks under win32

Hi, First of all it seems that currently the default setting is to use libr and not rterm.exe if avaiable. I appreciate that a lot! :) But there are two problems: On my system the "Rsrc" file created for R contains two sink(<file>) commands at the beginning of the file and just one sink() command at the end. So after several foreign blocks, R fails with the error message "sink stack is full". The error message appears only when using the gretl command client. gretlw32 simply stops executing the script saying "external command failed". A second problem is that sometimes R complaints that it cannot find its dlls. This seems to be well known to other users of libr already, see: http://code.env.duke.edu/projects/mget/ticket/203. I added the R-bin directory to my path environment variable and now the problem is gone. I don't know whether we should add a workaround for this problem, but if not we should at least give a hint in a helpfile somewhere. chris
