Details:

The frequencies command does not parse the limit parameter. Original report:

===============
To recreate this syntax error in psppire.exe 0.8.5-g2d71ac à
 
1.       Create any new single-variable (Var001) dataset. N=10 is plenty.
2.       Analyze menu, Descriptive Statistics, Frequencies
3.       Click on Frequency Table
4.       Choose “If no more than 50 values”
 
Here’s the error you get:
 
FREQUENCIES
                /VARIABLES= Var0001
 
.24-28: error: FREQUENCIES: Syntax error at `LIMIT'.
 
                /FORMAT=AVALUE LIMIT (50).
