It does not work! the exact same file in an other folder with no
Greek
> characters in the path name works.

Can you remind us of the exact issue, please? Or at least check that I
have it right. As I recall you have a folder with a name containing
specifically Greek characters, and inside that, a file you're trying to
open in gretl, but it won't open.
Yes!
Just to nail this down as completely as possible: What's the version of
Windows, and what's the language setting on the computer?
Windows 10 in English
And what exactly is the name of the file inside the Greek-named
folder?
Lets see this: I try to open the file Perry.gdt that is inside the folder
"τεστ" (test in Greek) that is on my desktop.
You get this:
And this happens any time there is a folder in the path with Greek letters
in it.
I notices this since my students had problem opening the files. Even in
Windows with Greek as the language.
And finally, what's the exact error message you get?
You get this when you double click on the file in the folder:
And you get this if you try to open the file from the menu of Gretl:
Oh, and in case it happens to make any difference, how exactly are
you
trying to open the file from gretl?
The reason is ask all these questions is that some time ago I mocked up
something resembling your situation on a laptop that runs Windows 10, and
after applying some multiligual fixes I got the file to open OK. So I need
to know the exact difference between our cases.
Thanks!
