I am having a problem in using GRETL. I have successfully installed
GRETL and the GTK+2.14 on my MAC. When I try to use GRETL I get
Gretl.app requires Apple's X11. Downloading and installing X11 I get,
"You cannot install X11 on this volume. Newer software already exists
on your computor." Which sounds like I do have a version of x11 but it
is more recent than the one Gretl would recognize. Has anyone else had
this problem and how can I get Gretl to work?
First of all, is X11 really installed and working? If so, you
should find an entry "X11" under Applications/Utilities, and
double-clicking on that should bring up an X terminal.
If that works, then try the trouble-shooting advice at
http://gretl.sourceforge.net/osx.html and
http://gretl.sourceforge.net/README.pdf
