Coincidentally, I just joined the list today to try and understand how one can duplicate SPSS Tables. I need to generate sums of certain variables in tables and I have not been able to do so thus far. Regards.

Never a 3-dimensional table. (More gimmick than value.) An additional value of (C)TABLES was also the ability to nest variables and include sub-totals, often 2 deep, sometimes 3 (but not often). Seldom used statistics. Mostly count and sum. -----Original Message----- From: pspp-users-bounces+ronald.crichton=cit.edu...@gnu.org [mailto:pspp-users-bounces+ronald.crichton=cit.edu...@gnu.org] On Behalf Of Charles Johnson Sent: Tuesday, 10 November 2015 4:02 AM To: Matthias Faeth; Ben Pfaff Cc: pspp-users@gnu.org Subject: RE: CTABLES ________________________________ > Date: Mon, 9 Nov 2015 16:53:41 +0100 > Subject: Re: CTABLES > From: m.fa...@gmx.de > To: b...@cs.stanford.edu > CC: charlesjohns...@outlook.com; fhouwel...@email.it; > j...@darrington.wattle.id.au; robe...@consumerscan.ca; > news....@free.fr; ame...@alanmead.org; pspp-users@gnu.org > > ok.

The SPV format is a way of showing the results dynamically allowing it to be edited later form or convert them to another format, etc. If it's just a broad topic. I think the important thing here is to collect information relevant to the implementation of CTABLES and also encouraging support for the work that needs PSPP project. Hands who can write code is needed. > 3. Maybe Frans idea about implementing !Macros could serve as a > workaround. I think that might be worthwhile to discuss.

I imagine PSPP priorities are implementing more compatible SPSS commands that equate to the basic package. I think at this point, is unproductive talk about macros.
