Re: GUI window menus don't "open" (macOS)

[Friedrich Beckmann]

Hi Sebastian,

thanks for your problem report. I have just tried psppire from the latest
installation of macports on my macbook pro. I have installed:

xorg-server 1.18.4_1
pspp 0.10.2

both in the X11 variants from macports. I cannot see missing menus.

Could you maybe describe your setup in more detail?
Which version of the XServer are you using?

Could you check the remarks in the section "Comparison to the MacPorts pspp 
version“
here: https://www.hs-augsburg.de/~beckmanf/pspp/ regarding the correct setup of 
the
startup configuration?

Regarding the language setting, could you tell us what

echo $LANG

shows as a result for your LANG environment variable?

Regards

Friedrich
