Thanks very much Alan - that is very helpful.  I will give it a try hopefully 
tomorrow.

    Andy,

    

    The functionality works with subcommand option "CLUSTER" it's just
    reported incorrectly in the manual. This is my test script:

    

    QUICK CLUSTER x y

      /CRITERIA=CLUSTERS(2)

      /PRINT=INITIAL CLUSTER.

    

    I imagine the manual will be fixed in an upcoming release but I
    don't know when that will be.

    

    Also, it might be worth noting that the only way to generate the
    syntax above is to choose Analyze > K-Means Cluster > ... and
    then to paste the syntax and add the PRINT subcommand manually. 
    That is, you can generate this from the dialog:

    

    QUICK CLUSTER  x y

        /CRITERIA=CLUSTERS(2).

    

    You need to put your cursor before the ending period and add the
    PRINT subcommand:

    

    QUICK CLUSTER  x y

        /CRITERIA=CLUSTERS(2)

        /PRINT=CLUSTER.

    

    I don't know how hard the GUI (PSPPIRE) code is to modify, but I'd
    like to take a look at configuring the PRINT subcommand in the
    dialog someday when I have a Linux machine that supports it (my
    Centos 6.x machine does not).

    

    -Alan

      Thanks very much Alan - this is great news and
        hugely appreciated.
        

        
        I am not yet super proficient with PSPP but I will have a
          look at this very soon and try to run it on my dataset - I may
          come back to you (if you don't mind) for a little guidance if
          I have trouble finding the right commands.
        

        
        Please let me know if this patch gets added - do I need to
          wait for this before trailing this function?
