[Gretl-users] Gretl request

Hi there! I have a problem when I try to install gretl on Ubuntu 7.10. I´ve tried both the binaries and from source. Apparently I do success with the binaries since gretl´s icon shows up on Applications, but when i click on it, nothing happens. Trying to install it from source code stops when it asks me to install a package I already have installed from synaptic. Any suggestions on how to have it running on Ubuntu 7.10? Thanks a lot. One more question: is there any way to generate a new variable which is the rank of an already existing one (so that biggest value on the existing variable gets 1, second biggest 2, and so on...). Thanks a lot from Spain, d/ -- Daniel Arribas Department of Economic Analysis Faculty of Business and Economics University of Zaragoza (www.unizar.es) Gran Vía, 2 50005 Zaragoza SPAIN
