Jason,
I think FSF or Paypal is a great idea. I teach at a university and have
limited teaching enhancement funds- or could apply for - some small
grants ($100? $1,000?) that might be able to provide small amounts of
money for people who have the programming know-how to develop some
innovations that my students would use in class (like, say, adding
multicollinearity tests to OLS regression).

Thanks for the offer. For some time, I have been asking Free Software
Foundation to set up an account for PSPP to accept donations for
coding. I'm starting to think they'll never act on this. The other
alternative is for "us" (whoever that should be) to set up something
like a PayPal account, independently of FSF, to accept
donations. Though faster, this approach may suffer from an appearance
of illegitimacy and lack of oversight.
What do potential donors think of this idea? Set up something on our
own? Or wait, possibly forever, to hear from FSF?

Hello friends of PSPP,
I am sure I'm not the only one in need of CTABLES. I put US$100 (who should I
send the check to?) .
Please join me in adding to this little money pot for the PSPP people to work
on CTABLES.
Something that can deal with something like
CTABLES
/VLABELS VARIABLES=grade Group MAPReadingFall MAPReadingSpring GainInReading
tGainInReading DISPLAY=LABEL
/TABLE grade [C]> Group [C]
BY MAPReadingFall [S][ count]
+ MAPReadingFall [S][ mean F40.1, STDDEV PAREN40.1]
+ MAPReadingSpring [S][ MEAN F40.1, STDDEV PAREN40.1]
+ GainInReading [s] [ mean F40.1, STDDEV PAREN40.1]
+ tGainInReading [s] [ mean F40.1, STDDEV PAREN40.1]
/CATEGORIES VARIABLES=grade Group ORDER=A KEY=VALUE EMPTY=EXCLUDE
/titles title="MAP scores in Reading, Fall to Spring, by group".
or
CTABLES
/VLABELS VARIABLES=group MCAMPASS DISPLAY=LABEL
/TABLE group [C][COUNT F40.0, ROWPCT.COUNT PCT40.1] BY MCAMPASS [C]
/CATEGORIES VARIABLES=group ORDER=A KEY=VALUE EMPTY=EXCLUDE
/CATEGORIES VARIABLES=MCAMPASS ORDER=A KEY=VALUE EMPTY=EXCLUDE
/titles title="MCA Math pass rates by engagement& grade".
And if I could add something to the wishlist, it would be to design the routine
in such a way that it could be reused by the R people, if possible.
