 There seems to be a bug in gretl_export and / or mread functions, at
least when one uses Octave.
 Check the following script:
  foreign language=Octave
  combj = nchoosek(1:6,3)
 gretl_export(combj,"combj1.mat");
 end foreign
 combj1 = mread("(a)dotdir/combj1.mat")                
 combj1
 One can retrieve the original matrix by this operation, but I guess that is not
intended:
 combj2 = mshape(vec(combj1'),rows(combj1),cols(combj1))
 combj2 
I believe this was fixed in CVS a couple of months ago. What os are you 
running? If you use win or osx, could you try the latest snapshot to see 
if it works for you?
 Keep the excellent work. 
Thanks!
