PSPPIRE Interactive Mode

[Andy Choens]

I can see that PSPP has an interactive mode, and I played with it and I 
think I really like it. Is there anyway to get direct access to the 
interactice PSPP "shell" through psppire? I like to be able to work 
interactively with the numbers, but I'm a forgetful sod and I tend to 
have MANY variables in the datasets that I work with. I have always 
liked the Variable view, and the information it provides at a glance, 
and I thin PSPP has done an excellent job implementing this feature. If 
I could use both at the same time, that would be really really neat.

Because of my work habits, I tend to like working out the syntax 
interactively and then cutting/pasting it into a text editor and then 
cleaning it and commenting it.

I tried psppire -i and psppire --interactive, hoping I'd get lucky but 
it didn't work.
