Hi!

Does PSPP still work? I cannot afford SPSS for my class and was hoping to
use PSPP.

Thanks!

Switch on colour coding in syntax editor

2022-03-22 Thread Mario Lausberg
Hi,

I am new to PSPP and saw on my friends computer that commands and notes in the 
syntax editor appeared in different colours (e.g. labels in pink, notes in 
blue, commands in red).

I found this feature very helpful but all text appears in black font on my 
machine. How can I change the setting? I have checked FAQ and the manual but 
couldn’t find an answer.

Thanks for your help!

Best regards,
Mario

All versions of PSPP in the last 10+ years should support syntax
highlighting. It does require PSPP to be able to find the "pspp.lang"
file at runtime, so if PSPP wasn't installed quite right then that
could be a problem. You might find out how your friend installed it
and try to do it the same way.

Yes. You can find out about PSPP at https://www.gnu.org/software/pspp/.

PSPP still works. Let us know if you are having a specific problem 
(finding PSPP, installing it, using it, etc.).

I don't use a Mac, so someone else will have to help.

Peyton,

Go here:

https://www.gnu.org/software/pspp/get.html

And select one of the three methods (probably the "Application Bundle").

Hopefully, that will just work, but if you run into trouble, reply to 
this list with the specific error message or otherwise exactly what did 
not work.

Hi Peyton,

for me it works on my Macbook Pro running Catalina. Could you describe how far 
you come?

Do you use Macports, Homebrew or the DMG file? 

Is it the dmg version 1.4.1-2 ? 

Regards

Friedrich

I'm not familiar with this, but as a guess I think try the most recent, 
which at at the top and says "#119" below the bundle. That will download 
a bundle. Not sure how installation on a Mac works; hopefully, it's 
automatic?
