Bug

[pohaku]

Sorry -- don't know if this site is one to report potential bugs. Developed
the follow *.sps syntax file via my spreadsheet. It creates empty lines as
indicated in the structure below. If you have empty lines PSPP doesn't toss
them out -- instead it reports missing or expected command for the empty
lines and thus does not read in the else or the into and thus recodes my
original data variable not the new target. blank lines should just be
ignored by the program...thanks

get /file= "c:\ssci210\lectures\02\addendum.sav"
string cityRecoded (a20).
recode city
( 'Captain Cook' = 'HAW' ) 
( 'Hilo' = 'HAW' ) 
( 'Waialua' = 'OAH' ) 
--empty
--empty
(else = '$$$')
into cityRecoded.
save outfile = "c:\ssci210\lectures\02\addendum.sav"
frequencies /variables=cityRecoded /format=AVALUE TABLE.
