Dear PSPP community! Thanks for your extensive replies! I am quite surprise on how much the project seem to have got back alive within the last year.
Somehow no new window was opened when opening a file in 0.7.7 on windows. I could not find anything about this in the 0.7.8 release notes. Is it only in git for now that this changed? I was confused when mentioning ODT - which seem to work for the output (which is certainly very nice to have). I was actually thinking about ODS, XLS or DBF as a means to import and export the current dataset. I could not find out how to import ODS in 0.7.7 though Wikipedia (well Wikipedia...) claims it should be possible (s. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PSPP, last modified on 30 January 2011 at 04:03). The only way to get Data out of PSPP for now seems to be exporting to a text file which is a quite tedious job as the docs seem to be rather bad and there is no such thing as a wizard. Best regards Roman P.S: Wikipedia claims that "PSPP can import Gnumeric, OpenDocument and Excel spreadsheets, Postgres databases, comma-separated values- and ASCII-files." (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PSPP, last modified on 30 January 2011 at 04:03) Anybody know why Excel is mentioned here? I also didn't find how to import ods in the 0.7.7 docs. P.P.S: The first download-link for windows on the PSPP home-page is quite misleading as the development version offered there is far from being up to date (0.7.5). P.P.S.: Thanks for mentioning R-CRAN Alma :) I use that for my science projects but the learning curve of R is still much steeper that of PSPP when it comes to teaching students the basics of statistics - even though there is quite nice guis like rcmdr or rkward. _______________________________________________ Pspp-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/pspp-users
