dear Jorge

I think is a problem of internazionalization, that is you are from  
Portugal then decimal are comma separated, instead ESP-r accepts only  
dot separated decimals. This affects the linux GTK version, I don't  
know about the windos versions, but I know that others codes suffer  
from the same problem. So
if you work on Linux issue the command "export LC_NUMERIC=C" on the  
shell before starting esp-r, if you work on windows you have to change  
the internationalization in control panel.

hope this solves your problem

bye

Marco
