I last used SPSS on a mainframe computer (VAX/VMS) in 1986, and I can remember 
using it from the command line. 

I am new to PSPP and I would like to try learning by using it in the same way I 
did with SPSS. 



I recently downloaded PSPP by doing the following:

   1. Went to https://www.gnu.org/software/pspp/get.html

   2. Under Binaries, Windows – I clicked Installers

   3. Under Downloads I chose the most recent 32-bit version, which was 
PSPP_2016-09-27_daily_32bits

   4. Then went through the installation process, which seemed to go OK.

   5. I got the pie chart icon and the PSPP user’s guide on my desktop.



When I double click the PSPP icon, that actually runs PSPPIRE and puts me in 
the data editor.

>From there I can’t see how to get from PSPPIRE to the command line.

The user guide gives lots of useful information about what to do at the command 
line once you get there, but I can’t find how to move between PSSPIRE and PSPP 
command line.



I was able to go to DOS and change to the directory containing the PSPP 
application, then type PSPP to get the command prompt (i.e. PSPP>).

Will I need to do this every time, or can I set up in such a way that I can 
double click an icon that takes me to the command prompt?
