RE: PSPP-BUG: Ubuntu PSPP, encoding questions

[Igor Rynkovoy]

I am using pspp (GNU PSPP) 0.7.9 with Ubuntu Server 12.

Here are two last lines from my SPS file:
SET LOCALE='windows-1251'.
SAVE OUTFILE="300513_164029_50.sav".

SAV file still has encoding " ISO 8859-5 standard; ISO Cyrillic" (shown with
command "enca -L ru 300513_164029_50.sav").
This SAV file can be opened in PSPP and SPSS, but in SPSS Cyrillic letters
are corrupted.

What I am doing wrong?

     Hello,
     
     Sorry, I couldn't find another email for questions.

address@hidden is appropriate for this type of question, so I'm replying
there.

     
     My name is Igor. In my project we use your app PSPP and I need to
compile
     SAV files.
     
     During working with your app, I found that in Windows PSPP GUI
application
     generate SAV file with encoding WINDOWS-1251. And in Ubuntu SAV file
has
     encoding ISO 8859-5.
     
     How can I get encoding WINDOWS-1251 for SAV in Ubuntu? In my case I use
two
     files (sps and ext).
     

I'm not sure which version of PSPP Ubuntu is shipping, but with recent
versions you can do this with:

 SET LOCALE='windows-1251'.
