I just downloaded gretl CVS today. After I uninstalled the old
version and installed the new CVS, I could not start gretl. The
error message is "Failed to open file 'C:\Program
Files\gretl\ui\gretlmain.xml': No such file or directory." I
always install gretl in drive D: because my drive C: is already
full. No problems happened before.
Thanks for the report. In current CVS I modified the procedure for
determining the main gretl directory on startup, with the idea of
making gretl usable by people who don't have any admin rights on
Windows and hence cannot write the usual registry keys. But
clearly something has gone wrong with this. There should be a fix
available soon.
