I repeated what I did yesterday and I regret to say that I get the same warning. The only difference is that I have to click on OK once to get it out of the way and start gretl (BTW the script window appears again, equally illegible).
On the other hand, I am happy to report that the crash (upon double-clicking the VECM icon) has been solved.
I do, however, have another -newbe type- question. Are the session folders (which are automatically created at the default gretl directory at C:\Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\gretl\) supposed to be empty?

Never mind; I think I have found the problem(s) and if I'm right,
it doesn't really have anything to do with CP1253. I will make a
new Windows snapshot on Friday, and I'd be grateful if you could
see if it works for you.
