[Gretl-users] Question of gdt files not looking like XML files

[Peter Robertson]

Dear sir

I have been using Gretl for some time now, and in a previous version I 
was able to save a text file (and enclosed data) as a gdt file, and 
later look at the file through something like Notepad and see how it 
looked like an xml file.

I am currently using Gretl 1.6.5, and now any text data files I convert 
to gdt looks like gobbledy gook.

What happened? Is this its normal behaviour, or does the fact that I am 
using Windows 98 have something to to with this?

Regards Peter Robertson
