tramoseats options mistranslated to capture window

Hello,

I first use the menu to set tramoseats options to seasonally adjust variable d62.
This generates the following line in the capture window
"d62.tramoseats(opt="seats=2 mq=4 lam=-1 inic=3 idif=3 ieast=-1 -itrad=7 iatip=1 aio=0", save="sa") d62"

Pasting the capture line into a programme generates an error message because it includes "-itrad=7" instead of "itrad=-7".
The TramoSeats manual explains that ITRAD=-7 runs a pre-test before implementing ITRAD=7.

If in the menu I deselect "Run SEATS after TRAMO", the following line appears in capture window
"d62.tramoseats(runtype=topt="mq=4 lam=-1 inic=3 idif=3 ieast=-1 -itrad=7 iatip=1 aio=0", save="lin") d62"

Which, when pasted into a programme, results in SEATS being run after TRAMO (contrary to my instruction).
I suspect "runtype=t" should appear after "opt=" not before.
