[Gretl-users] Re: gretl 2020c: GUI bug warning - Another (related) bug
It gets a little worse.
1. With a dataset loaded, select one or more series in the main window,
right-click, and select "*Copy to clipboard*".
2. Choose *ANY* of the four choices given in the small window that pops
up, for "separator for data columns".
3. Click "OK" and gretl crashes.

We've discovered a bug in the recent 2020c release. It's
maybe not
very likely to get triggered but if it is then gretl will surely
crash. This is now fixed in snapshots. But here's what NOT to try in
the current release:
1. With a dataset loaded, select one or more series in the main
window, right-click, and select "Display values".
2. In the data window that appears, click on the third button from the
left in the button-bar at the top ("Copy"). This lets you send data to
the clipboard.
3. A little dialog appears, to let you choose the format for the
copying. If you select anything OTHER THAN "plain text" and click OK
gretl will crash.
