I think it's likely that I'll change PSPP to use the same output model. One reason that it differed until now is simply that it wasn't clear to me how SPSS really modeled output. The documentation on it is pretty muddy. I've now got code that reads and understands most .spv files just fine. I'm s

FWIW, I'm excited that you're working on reading SPV format. I had assumed that the implicit output model might preclude compatibility. -Alan On 7/24/2018 4:30 PM, Ben Pfaff wrote: > There might be some small hope here because I've been spending a lot of > time lately working to make PSPP underst

Great News - I'd long to see CTABLES in PSPP. If there is anything we can do to assist you with this project give us a note. For me Ronald's suggestion to opt for TABLES instead would be also alright, if this is easier to implement. 2018-07-24 23:30 GMT+02:00 Ben Pfaff : > There might be some sm

There might be some small hope here because I've been spending a lot of time lately working to make PSPP understand SPSS's .spv output file format, so that it can read (and write?) it directly. Implicit in that format is an understanding of the SPSS output model, which seems to be entangled quite

I asked about this a few years ago. I gather it would be difficult. Mind you, I used TABLES in SPSS in about 1990 and got to quite like it and used it a lot. So, here we are in 2018 and I use CTABLES in SPSS, and can’t get the hang of it, at least not much more than the basic usage of it. Can’t
