Re: PSPP-BUG: bugs in PSPP 1.4.1 for Windows

Hi Matt,

i tried 

variable label var5 'Hallo'.

variable label 
var6 'Berlin'
var7 'Dortmund‘.

after producing a dataset with grid.sps from the examples directory on a MacOS 
Gui Version and there it works. Isn’t the syntax „label“ instead of „labels“ ?
