7 Changes from 0.6.2 to 0.7.8:
22 - PRESERVE and RESTORE
26 - SAVE TRANSLATE to CSV and tab-delimited files
30 * Changes to existing commands:
32 - AUTORECODE has a new GROUP subcommand.
34 - CROSSTABS has been re-implemented to fix numerous bugs.
36 - DO REPEAT command has been reimplemented. Now, when DO REPEAT
37 contains an INCLUDE or INSERT command, substitutions are not
38 applied to the included file.
40 - HOST has been updated to use more modern syntax.
42 - INCLUDE and INSERT have a new ENCODING subcommand.
44 - MISSING VALUES can now assign missing values to long string
47 - The following new subcommands to NPAR TESTS have been implemented:
48 COCHRAN, FRIEDMAN, KENDALL, KRUSKAL-WALLIS, MANN-WHITNEY, MCNEMAR,
49 SIGN, WILCOXON, and RUNS
51 - SET and SHOW no longer have ENDCMD, NULLINE, PROMPT, CPROMPT, and
52 DPROMPT subcommands. The defaults are now fixed values.
54 - VALUE LABELS can now assign value labels to long string
57 * Other language changes:
59 - The new DATASET commands replace the "scratch file" PSPP
60 extension, which is no longer supported.
62 - Strings may now include arbitrary Unicode code points specified
63 in hexadecimal, using the syntax U'hhhh'. For example, Unicode
64 code point U+1D11E, the musical G clef character, may be
65 expressed as U'1D11E'.
67 See the "Tokens" section in the PSPP manual for more information.
69 - In previous versions of PSPP, in a string expressed in
70 hexadecimal with X'hh' syntax, the hexadecimal digits expressed
71 bytes in the locale encoding. In this version of PSPP, X'hh'
72 syntax always expresses bytes in UTF-8 encoding.
74 See the "Tokens" section in the PSPP manual for more information.
76 * PSPPIRE graphical user interface improvements:
78 - Added support for non-ASCII characters in strings, labels and
81 - A "Split Window" function is available, which makes it easier to
82 see different parts of a large data file.
84 - Data files can now be opened by specifing their name as the first
85 argument. This means that on a properly configured desktop, double
86 clicking on an icon will open the file.
90 - The new "cairo" output driver supports output in PostScript, PDF,
91 and SVG formats. Its functionality is a superset of that of the
92 "postscript" driver, which has been removed. You must have Cairo
93 and Pango installed to build the "cairo" driver.
95 - Charts are now produced with Cairo and Pango, instead of libplot.
96 Without them, the new graphing features will not work. If you do
97 not have Cairo and Pango installed, you must run `configure' with
100 - The plain text output driver now properly supports multibyte UTF-8
101 characters, including double-width characters and combining
104 * The "pspp" program has a new option --batch (or -b) that selects
105 "batch" syntax mode. In previous versions of PSPP this syntax mode
106 was the default. Now a new "auto" syntax mode is the default. In
107 "auto" mode, PSPP interprets most syntax files correctly regardless
108 of their intended syntax mode.
110 See the "Syntax Variants" section in the PSPP manual for more
113 * The "pspp" program has a new option --syntax-encoding that
114 specifies the encoding for syntax files listed on the command line,
115 as well as the default encoding for syntax files included with
116 INCLUDE or INSERT. The default is to accept the system locale
117 encoding, UTF-8, UTF-16, or UTF-32, automatically detecting which
118 one the system file uses.
120 See the documentation for the INSERT command in the PSPP manual for
123 * A new Perl module allows Perl programs to read and write PSPP
126 * A tutorial chapter has been added to the user manual.
128 Changes from 0.6.1 to 0.6.2:
132 - Dutch, thanks to Harry Thijssen.
134 - Brazilian Portuguese, thanks to Michel Boaventura.
136 Thanks for translations are also due to the coordinators at
137 translationproject.org.
139 * Statistical bug fixes:
141 - REGRESSION: Report correct standard error of the estimate (bug
144 - T-TEST: Report correct significance of paired sample T-test in
145 the common case (bug #26936) and corner cases. Thanks to Mike
146 Griffiths and Matej Cepl for reporting these bugs.
148 * Build fixes and changes:
150 - Fix build with GTK+ 2.17.4 and later.
152 - Make running "make" after running "configure" with different
153 settings reliably rebuild version.c.
155 - Cygwin and MinGW build fixes.
157 - Fixes for building with recent gnulib.
159 - The Makefile now honors two new variables, PSPP_LDFLAGS and
160 PSPPIRE_LDFLAGS, that affect linking of the PSPP and PSPPIRE
161 binaries, respectively. This makes building easier for some
164 - Fixes for "configure --enable-relocatable" (bug #25508).
166 * Data file bug fixes and changes:
168 - Fix reading text data files that contain a mix of white space
169 and commas. Now "a ,b" is treated as two fields containing "a"
170 and "b"; previously it was treated as three, with an empty field
173 - Fix writing corrupted .sav files on Windows.
175 - Fix writing variable labels longer than 252 bytes to save files.
176 Thanks to Robert Westlund for reporting this bug.
178 - Fix writing corrupted .por files (bug #26034).
180 - Fix reading .por files whose initial lines are not padded out
181 with spaces as expected.
183 - PSPP will no longer issue warnings about some .sav file records
184 or values that it does not understand. These warnings were
185 harmless, but needlessly alarmed some users.
187 - Fix crash reading empty string fields from PostgreSQL databases.
189 * Bug fixes that affect PSPP and PSPPIRE:
191 - Users may now control precision of output statistics. Instead
192 of hard coding the width and decimals of output numbers, respect
193 the default format in most instances. Counts are now normally
194 displayed with the format of the weight variable, if any.
196 - Fix crash when an INSERT command specifies the name of a file
197 that does not exist (bug #24569).
199 - Fix crash when CROSSTABS specifies a long-string variable (bugs
202 - Fix crash drawing pie charts with many segments.
204 - Fix crash when NUMERIC specifies an invalid format.
206 * PSPPIRE bug fixes and changes:
208 - On Windows, write the output file to the user's home directory
209 instead of the current directory, to better match user
212 - Some data editor fixes.
216 - Fix typo in BINOMIAL section of user manual (bug #25892).
218 Changes from 0.6.0 to 0.6.1:
220 * Statistical bug fixes:
222 - Report correct standardized regression coefficients in linear
223 regression output (bug #23567).
225 * Bug fixes that affect PSPP and PSPPIRE:
227 - Avoid crash with pie charts (bug #24014).
229 - Don't append % to count totals (bug #24003).
231 - Don't crash on bad input (bug #24031).
233 - Don't crash if "end data." is not left aligned (bug #24115).
235 - Change default workspace value to 64 MB, to avoid unnecessary
236 disk accesses on modern machines.
240 - Add ".sav" or ".por" suffix to filename when saving with Save_As
243 - Make it possible to reopen the output window on Windows (bug
246 - A POSIX regular expression library is now included and used
247 automatically if the host does not have one or has one that is
250 * Build fixes and changes:
252 - Work around bug in GSL that prevented build with recent GCC
253 versions without manually adding -fgnu89-inline to CFLAGS.
255 - Also warn about missing prerequisites as we encounter them (bug
258 - Distribute necessary files to allow users working from the
259 distributed tarball to configure with --enable-gui-tools.
261 - Append $(EXEEXT_FOR_BUILD) to output file name when building
262 q2c, fixing build problems on Windows.
264 - GSL 1.8 or later is now required.
266 - Build errors with --enable-relocatable were fixed.
268 * The German translations were removed, since native German speakers
269 found them too poor to be useful.
271 Changes from 0.4.0 to 0.6.0:
273 * The PSPP license is now version 3 or later of the GNU General
274 Public License. Previously, it was version 2 or later.
276 * PSPP now has a graphical interface, called PSPPIRE. This
277 interface allows you to enter data and variable definitions
278 interactively. Commands may be executed in syntax form, or by
279 using the interactive dialog boxes available from the dropdown
282 * A few sample syntax files are now included in the `examples'
285 * Numerous major and minor bugs have been fixed.
289 * The INSTALL file now reflects the details of how to install
290 PSPP. It is a tailored version of the generic installation
291 instructions, instead of a verbatim copy.
293 * iconv, which is ordinarily installed as part of a Unix-like
294 system, is now required. If you don't have it already, you can
295 install GNU libiconv (http://www.gnu.org/software/libiconv/).
297 * libxml2 and zlib are new optional dependencies. They are
298 required to use PSPP's support for reading Gnumeric files.
300 Statistical procedure changes:
302 * REGRESSION is a new procedure for fitting linear models to data
303 via least-squares estimation.
305 * NPAR TESTS is a new procedure for non-parametric tests. In this
306 release, it supports binomial and chi-square tests.
308 * RANK is a new procedure to rank variables. It supports numerous
311 * FREQUENCIES can now output histograms and pie charts. These
312 features were present in earlier releases, but not documented.
314 User interface changes:
316 * In many situations where PSPP once terminated with a fatal
317 error, PSPP now recovers and continues execution.
319 * PSPP is now able to start up and run even if it cannot find its
322 * Journaling of interactive commands to a disk file is now
323 implemented. By default, journaling is enabled, to a file named
324 `pspp.jnl' in the current directory. SET JOURNAL may be used to
327 * The use of `+' between syntax file names on the command line to
328 prevent the dictionary from being cleared between their
329 executions is no longer supported. All syntax files are now
330 executed as if `+' had been specified.
332 * The -d/--define and -u/--undef command line options are no
333 longer supported. Instead, use /usr/bin/env or shell primitives
334 to define or clear environment variables before invoking PSPP.
336 * If a syntax file named named `rc' is found in a configuration
337 directory (such as $HOME/.pspp), it is executed before any
338 syntax file specified on the command line. The -r or
339 --no-statrc command line option may be used to disable this
344 * Output configuration options have changed. Please refer to the
345 manual for a full description of the available options.
347 In consequence, you will need to reinstall your "devices" file.
348 "make install" will do this for you.
350 * Most error messages are now written to PSPP output files by
351 default. SET ERROR can be used to disable this behavior.
353 * When invoked interactively, PSPP now by default produces output
354 on the terminal, piping it through the "more" program.
355 Previously, by default output was written only to file
356 pspp.list. On most terminals, the page length used for output
357 automatically adapts to the terminal size, even if the terminal
362 - This driver now supports charts in output. Charts are written
363 as separate files that the main output file refers to. By
364 default, charts are written in PNG format to files named
365 pspp-1.png, pspp-2.png, and so on.
367 - Configurations are provided that use VT100 (and xterm)
368 line-drawing characters in tables. The option "-o list-vt100"
369 requests use of this device for output to pspp.list.
373 - The default paper size is now determined using the PAPERSIZE
374 environment variable, or the LC_PAPER locale category on
375 systems that support it. If these are not set, the default is
376 now A4, instead of US letter. To make US letter the default,
377 set PAPERSIZE to "letter" in your environment.
379 - Font metrics are now read from AFM files, instead of
380 Groff-format metrics files. PostScript fonts can now be
383 In consequence, you will need to install an AFM file for each
384 font used in PostScript output. "make install" will install
385 AFM files for the standard PostScript fonts, including the
386 ones that the PostScript driver uses by default.
388 - Standard paper sizes no longer need to be specified through a
389 configuration file. The "papersize" configuration file is no
390 longer needed, or supported.
392 - The PostScript prologue is no longer obtained from the
393 "ps-prologue" configuration file. This configuration file is
394 no longer needed, or supported.
398 - The HTML prologue is no longer obtained from the
399 "html-prologue" configuration file. This configuration file
400 is no longer needed, or supported.
402 Command language changes:
404 * The following commands are new:
406 - GET DATA, which currently supports reading Gnumeric files and
407 text data files. It will be extended later to read other
408 types of foreign data.
410 - CD, to change the current directory.
412 - INSERT, to execute a syntax file.
414 - DELETE VARIABLES, to remove variables from the active file
417 - ADD DOCUMENT, to add text to active file documents.
419 - CLOSE FILE HANDLE (a PSPP extension; see below).
421 - XEXPORT, a PSPP extension that is a transformation equivalent
424 * The following functions for transformation expressions are new:
426 - DATEDIFF, for computing the difference of two dates.
428 - DATESUM, for advancing a date by a specified duration.
430 - VALUELABEL, to obtain the value label for a value.
432 * PSPP now supports very long string variables (over 255 bytes
435 * MATCH FILES now supports the FIRST and LAST subcommands.
437 * Previous versions of PSPP prohibited using commands to both read and
438 write a single file at the same time. Now, PSPP allows this, and
439 the new version of the file atomically replaces the old version.
441 * The following commands are no longer available. They will be
442 re-implemented in a later release:
444 - CLEAR TRANSFORMATIONS
450 * The PROCESS IF command, which was deprecated, has been removed.
451 You may replace any usage of it by SELECT IF following
452 TEMPORARY, which has the same effect.
454 * The output format for variables created by VECTOR may now be
455 specified as part of the VECTOR syntax.
457 "Scratch files", a new PSPP extension:
459 A scratch file, like a system file, consists of a dictionary and
460 any number of cases. Small scratch files are stored in memory;
461 one that grows too large is written to disk. By default, any file
462 handle whose name begins with # is assumed to refer to a scratch
465 Scratch files can be used just about anywhere a system or portable
466 file can be used. Also, portable files are now allowed in most
467 places that system files were allowed in previous PSPP version.
469 A new CLOSE FILE HANDLE command allows the storage associated with
470 scratch files to be freed. It also allows file handles to be
471 reassigned to new files.
473 For more information on scratch files, refer to the "File Handles"
474 section in the PSPP manual. For specifics of what commands now
475 allow what kinds of files to be specified, refer to the
476 documentation on those particular commands.
480 * Binary formats and IBM/360 formats, including ASCII/EBCDIC
481 translation, are now supported. Use FILE HANDLE to specify the
482 format of these files.
484 * Little-endian, big-endian, and VAX-endian formats are now
485 supported for integer binary formats when reading and writing
486 data files. The new RIB and WIB subcommands on the SET command
487 control endianness of integer data. The default is the host's
490 * IEEE 754, VAX, and IBM hexadecimal formats are now supported for
491 floating point binary formats when reading and writing data
492 files. The new RRB and WRB subcommands on the SET command
493 control the floating point format. The default is the host's
494 native floating point format.
496 * DATA LIST now supports the SKIP subcommand, to skip records at
497 the beginning of a file. For compatibility, DATA LIST now
498 treats N format as F format for FREE and LIST format input.
500 * The SAVE and XSAVE commands now support the UNSELECTED,
501 PERMISSIONS, NAMES, and MAP subcommands.
503 * The EXPORT command has been re-implemented to obtain better
504 results. Support for the UNSELECTED, DIGITS, and TYPE
505 subcommands has been added.
507 * For compatibility, PRINT now inserts a space at the beginning of
508 every output line, even lines that would otherwise be blank,
509 when OUTFILE is specified. (The behavior of WRITE is
512 * For compatibility, PRINT EJECT now inserts the digit `1' at the
513 beginning of each line that should begin a new page.
515 * For compatibility, WRITE now outputs the system-missing value as
516 a field filled with spaces. Binary formats are an exception.
517 (The behavior of PRINT is unchanged.)
521 * Input and output format descriptions have been rewritten. They
522 now precisely describe what is accepted on input and written on
525 * The descriptions of the PSPP system and portable file formats
526 have been extensively revised and improved.
528 For developers, the build system now requires Autoconf 2.60 and
531 Changes from 0.3.0 to 0.4.0:
533 Changes in build dependencies:
535 * The GNU Scientific Library (libgsl), version 1.6 or later, is
538 * libplot from GNU plotutils is optional. Without it, the new
539 graphing features will not work. If you do not have it
540 installed, you must run `configure' with --without-libplot.
542 * libgmp2 is no longer a dependency.
544 Newly implemented commands and statistical features:
546 * EXAMINE, including its graphing features.
548 * FREQUENCIES now supports percentiles.
556 * SORT CASES now sorts stably, that is, two cases with equal sort
557 criteria will be in the same relative order before and after the
560 * T-TEST (re-written).
562 * DATE and USE. These commands are parsed but otherwise ignored,
563 to enhance compatibility with certain command files that invoke
566 * VARIABLE WIDTH, VARIABLE ALIGNMENT, and VARIABLE LEVEL. These
567 currently have no effect on PSPP output, but their values are
568 written to and read from system files and thus may affect
569 third-party software.
571 * SET EPOCH implemented.
573 * DATA LIST FREE and DATA LIST LIST now support arbitrary field
576 * FILE HANDLE now supports custom tab widths.
578 Long variable names (and other identifiers) are now supported. Up
579 to the first 64 bytes of each identifier is significant. PSPP now
580 reads and writes system files compatible with SPSS version 12.
582 New --algorithm and --syntax command line options allow
583 SPSS-compatible or enhanced modes to be selected.
585 Support for transformation expressions has been rewritten and
586 significantly improved. Refer to the manual for details.
588 Calculation of moments (mean, standard deviation, kurtosis,
589 skewness) has been rewritten and should now be more accurate. In
590 --algorithm=enhanced mode moments may be more accurate than SPSS in
593 Numerous bugs have been fixed, too many to mention here. Many new
594 tests have been added, leading to the discovery and fixing of many
597 The ASCII output driver can now squeeze multiple blank lines into
600 Much of the code has been rewritten and refactored. It is now much
603 The FILE TYPE and REPEATING DATA commands have been disabled for
604 this release because their implementations were deemed too buggy to
605 be useful. They will be fixed and replaced in a future release.
607 New pspp-mode for Emacs (in pspp-mode.el).
609 Added rudimentary command-line completion for interactive input.
611 lib/julcal and lib/dcdflib are no longer used, so they have been
614 For developers, the build system now requires Autoconf 2.58 and
615 Automake 1.7. The included gettext has been updated to version
618 Some reports state that Texinfo 4.8, the latest version, may be
619 necessary to successfully format the documentation on some systems.
621 Version 0.3.0 changes since 0.2.3:
625 * Using alphanumeric variables in functions under AGGREGATE
628 * Under certain circumstances, the final case would be omitted
629 from the results of an AGGREGATE operation. Fixed.
631 * Undefined behavior was invoked by referencing a freed pointer
632 under certain circumstances. Fixed.
634 * A wrong record size was displayed when paging the active file to
637 * Not having enough temporary space for sorting caused a core
640 * Syntax errors in function descriptions on AGGREGATE caused core
643 * A null pointer was dereferenced, causing a core dump, when
644 PERCENTILES was specified on FREQUENCIES. This fixes the
645 problem, but PSPP still doesn't calculate percentiles.
647 * SORT always sorted in ascending order. Fixed.
649 * Some minor memory leaks in the expression parser were removed.
651 * Many assertions fixed for strict ANSI C compliance.
655 * SET ECHO ON now implemented, but turned off by default.
657 * PRINT specifier supported on END REPEAT.
661 * System libgmp2 library is used if installed instead of
662 unconditionally using the included libgmp2 subset.
664 * Extensive code cleanup, which continues.
666 * Added CORRELATIONS command parser, but not implemented.
668 Version 0.2.3 changes since 0.2.2:
672 * SPLIT FILE with a string variable caused a core dump. Fixed.
674 * Nested INCLUDEs didn't work. Fixed.
676 * The MATCH FILES procedure set the values of variables not present
677 to 0. It should have been SYSMIS. This is now fixed.
679 * The REMARK command was too aggressive about skipping lines. It
680 didn't like being the last command in a file.
682 * Comment parsing wasn't consistent with the rest of the code in its
683 idea of where one command ends and another starts. This meant
684 that sometimes commands would be mysteriously ignored. Thanks to
685 Dr. Dirk Melcher <BZN-mdksh@t-online.de> for reporting this bug.
687 * The TABLE subcommand on MATCH FILES worked only erratically at
688 best. This fixes it. Thanks to Dr. Dirk Melcher
689 <BZN-mdksh@t-online.de> for reporting this bug.
691 * VARIABLE LABELS rejected a slash before the first variable
692 specification, contradicting the documentation. Thanks to Walter
693 M. Gray <graywm@northernc.on.ca> for reporting this bug.
695 * Because of an incorrect optimization in memory allocation,
696 CROSSTABS sometimes segfaulted when asked to output multiple
697 tables. Thanks to Walter M. Gray <graywm@northernc.on.ca> for
700 * CROSSTABS didn't display value labels for column and row
701 variables. Thanks to Walter M. Gray <graywm@northernc.on.ca> for
704 * WRITE didn't write line ends. Fixed. Thanks to Dr. Dirk Melcher
705 <BZN-mdksh@t-online.de> for reporting this bug.
707 * The TABLE subcommand on MATCH FILES worked only erratically at
708 best. This fixes it. Thanks to Dr. Dirk Melcher
709 <BZN-mdksh@t-online.de> for reporting this bug.
711 * VARIABLE LABELS rejected a slash before the first variable
712 specification, contradicting the documentation. Thanks to Walter
713 M. Gray <graywm@northernc.on.ca> for reporting this bug.
715 * Because of an incorrect optimization in memory allocation,
716 CROSSTABS sometimes segfaulted when asked to output multiple
717 tables. Thanks to Walter M. Gray <graywm@northernc.on.ca> for
720 * CROSSTABS didn't display value labels for column and row
721 variables. Thanks to Walter M. Gray <graywm@northernc.on.ca> for
724 * WRITE didn't write line ends. Fixed. Thanks to Dr. Dirk Melcher
725 <BZN-mdksh@t-online.de> for reporting this bug.
727 * MATCH FILES corrupted memory and dumped core on some syntax
730 * MATCH FILES should set numeric values not available to the
731 system-missing value, not to 0. Thanks to Dr. Dirk Melcher
732 <BZN-mdksh@t-online.de> for reporting this bug.
734 * KEEP didn't work properly on the SAVE procedure. Fixed. Thanks
735 to Ralf Geschke <ralf@kuerbis.org> for reporting this bug.
739 * Some systems didn't like the way open_file was coded. Thanks to
740 Hankin <hankin@rogue.consultco.com> for pointing this out.
742 * The SAVE procedure didn't save long string variables properly.
743 Fixed by this patch. Thanks to Hankin
744 <hankin@rogue.consultco.com> for this patch.
746 * Minor documentation fixes for MATCH FILES.
748 Version 0.2.2 changes since 0.2.1:
752 * Fix behavior of PRINT SPACE for negative arguments.
754 * Fix reading some unusual system files.
756 * Fix LIST problems with very long variables. Thanks to Hankin
757 <hankin@dunno.com> for this bug report.
759 * Fix problems with some string format specifiers.
761 * Fix use of $CASENUM in expressions. Thanks to Dirk Melcher
762 <BZN-mdksh@t-online.de> for reporting this bug.
764 * Additional DATA LIST FREE and DATA LIST LIST fixes. Thanks to
765 Hankin <hankin@dunno.com> again on this one.
767 * Sometimes you may encounter a PSPP script that has to be
768 interpreted in interactive mode. Now you can use the -i flag to
771 * Warnings for egcs 1.1.1 cleaned up. (However you'll get lots of
772 `unused variable' warnings under gcc 2.7.2.3, fixing this will
777 * The files in gmp need the internationalization directory in
778 their include path. Thanks to OKUJI Yoshinori
779 <okuji@kuicr.kyoto-u.ac.jp> for pointing this out.
781 Version 0.2.1 changes since 0.2.0:
785 * Remember to include examples/ directory in distribution :-)
787 * Fixed gmp compile problems for some non-i386 architectures.
788 Thanks to Hans Olav Eggestad <olav@jordforsk.nlh.no> and others
791 * DATA LIST FREE and DATA LIST LIST parsing of input files is now
792 matches the documented behavior exactly, and error messages are
793 more helpful. Thanks to Mark H. Wood <mwood@IUPUI.Edu>.
