Indeed, our changelog for the current version 0.91 contains the entry: "fix show-stopping problem in the GUI with the X list". What's your installed version of the package? * And Brian replied: Hi Sven, Version 2023c of Gretl. and StrucBreak 09.1 * Allin now says: I just download the current StrucBreak 0.91 (dated 2021-07-20) and its code contains no occurrence of the statement shown in the error Brian reported, namely list X = !nelem(X) ? null : X Brian, are you sure that's the version you're using? To verify, open the gretl console and type include StrucBreak.gfn You should see StrucBreak 0.91, 2021-07-20 (Riccardo "Jack" Lucchetti and Sven Schreiber) Or alternatively, type pkg query StrucBreak in which case you should see several lines of output, among which Package: StrucBreak 0.91 (2021-07-20) Allin Cottrell _______________________________________________ Gretl-users mailing list -- gretl-users@gretlml.univpm.it To unsubscribe send an email to gretl-users-le...@gretlml.univpm.it Website: https://gretlml.univpm.it/postorius/lists/gretl-users.gretlml.univpm.it/
