PSPP Windows 7 Terminal mode

[Joe Genshlea]

Hello- 

I'm a big time NB, so please bear with me. 

When running PSPP in terminal mode on windows the first character of the executed line carries forward to the following line.  I can't seem to get around this

Examples:

PSPP> GET DATA

G

PSPP> DATA LIST LIST

D

if I type "/" sometimes the cursor will tab forward and allow me to enter a subcommand, but then the following line will render with a "p"

PSPP> GET DATA

GET DATA

    > /TYPE=TXT

pTYPE=TXT

.1-5: error: GET DATA: Syntax error at `pTYPE': expecting `/'.

.1-5: error: GET DATA: Syntax error at `pTYPE': expecting TYPE.

I've installed two different versions on my Windows 7 computer and observe the same behavior. The version I'm currently running is PSPP-084-20150224

I know this must be really obvious.  Thanks for your patience.

Joe
