deb file that I have but I feel obligated to tell you that it was created via checkinstall and it does not do dependency checking for you.

If you are already a wizard with R-CRAN, and don't need to share files / code with SPSS users, you are better off ignoring this post. sav files, this program is worth checking out. :KS If you have to work with SPSS syntax or. In time this program will become _the_ tool to point new Linux users to when they need a statistics tool that comes with a GUI.Īs an added bonus some of you will be pleased to learn that the FSF have worked very hard to reproduce the delightful fortranesque world that is SPSS syntax. The GUI (psppire) does have some limitations, but it's much better than any R-CRAN front-end I've ever seen.
