Well thanks, but it's not working... After typing "gretlw32.exe -g" (or
--debug) nothing happens. (In contrast to "gretlw32.exe", which starts
gretl alright, so it's not a path issue or something like that.)
However, it may be unnecessary anyway; I read somewhere that stdout and
stderr for any Windows program can be redirected to text files when the
programs are started like this (assuming proper write permissions):
1) stdout:
gretlw32.exe >gretlout.txt
2) stderr:
gretlw32.exe 2>gretlerrout.txt
Yes, that does seem to work. I've had one more go at the
"redirect stderr to console" code in the latest Windows snapshot,
because it seems it might be useful to see the errors as they
appear, but I won't persevere if it still doesn't work.
Allin.
