Hi there,
Couple things I noticed in using Gretl on my Mac.
First is it localized to Japanese for some reason on install. I was able to
poke around and change it to English. My system is in English and so not
sure why it didn't read that correctly.
I've seen surprising language choices on Mac a few times before. Could
you tell us what you see if you open a Terminal window and execute the
following two lines?
echo $LANG
locale
Second I noticed that there was recently code added (07/23) to
handle
quotations on importing CSVs. I have a CSV with names in it and some names
have quotations (like O'Brien). For now I can delete that column but
perhaps worth adding an option to ignore quotations.
We'll look into that. It might be helpful if you could send me a copy
of the CSV in question so I can see exactly what's happening.
