Thanks John,

The --help command gave me everything I needed. I will check to see if I have the right docs, if so, and they are inconsistent with the 0.75 commands, I will submit a bug report.

regards
Ben

These options are from a former version.  You say they are "documented", but I am
fairly sure all reference has been deleted from the manual for 0.7.5 -- if not, then
that is a bug, and should be reported as such.

You can easily get a summary  of the supported options in the version you are using by
typing "pspp --help".

    The synatx file parses correctly if I omit all command line options.

That's good.   The idea is that the most common usage should work without any options.
The options exist for people who want to do something unusual.

I hope this helps.
