[Gretl-users] locale related bug ?

I was writing a script on gretl (CVS version, couple of days old). I get the following gretl version 1.8.6cvs Current session: 2010-01-11 17:56 ? scalar testdot = 0.1 Replaced scalar testdot = 0 ? print testdot testdot = 0,00000000 ? scalar testdiv = 1/10 Generated scalar testdiv = 0,1 ? print testdiv testdiv = 0,10000000 ? scalar testcomma = 0,1 The symbol ',' is not valid in this context Syntax error in command line Error executing script: halting I'm forced to use set force_decpoint on and use a dot for anything to work. This isn't, I think, the best behaviour. If you have a script with an if xxx > 0.1 you will have very different results, and no warning, depending on the locale setting. And if this is indeed the desired behaviour then the comma as a separator should work fine.
