[Gretl-users] Input of csv data - does the German version work as intended?

Hi, Gretl let me down :( Full of enthusiasm I praised Gretl to my students, but they couldn't even import my csv files with their current release! So I got me their version 2016a and did some experiments. I found out the following: The import dialogues for the German and English versions are different. If you set up the right decimal separator in the German version, everything works fine. If you got it wrong (which my students did), the dialogue NEVER reappears! So you have no chance to correct your mistake and you will not be able to load any file with different decimal settings. Could you please correct this and let the import dialogue reappear? If a user has different sources with different separator rules, he should be able to adjust the settings for each file. Or is there any "settings" option at another place that I am not aware of? Current workaround is to change the language setting back to English, restart and set it back to German. Then the dialogue will reappear. Thanks for your help!
