[Gretl-users] Re: Open a session file from command line
Well I have a script that I run on several different financial markets. It takes a long
time for some of them. So, I save the sessions at the end to preserve all data. Then I am
working on a new script to guide things from this point. In the first script I use the
command "open" or "append"" to open the initial GDT files. But,
in this second phase, what I have is session files, so I was trying to figure out if there
was some command that could be added to the script to do this automatically. If not, I can
always start the file manually and run the script from there.

gretl -r <sessionfile>
works fine here, so you must be more specific about what you did and
what failed exactly.
Of course, this is a shell command, not one for use when you're already
within gretl. The session concept is GUI-centric, so opening a session
file from a script is indeed not supported I think. The idea is that
when you write a script, that is already describing your "session" in a
broader sense.
You would have to explain what you need the session-in-a-script for to
get other suggestions on how to achieve that.
