[Gretl-devel] about genr markers (from "Panel data marker strings")

Hi again, as you will have guessed, I'm juggling around some panel datasets at the moment. (BTW, the handling overall has become very nice in recent years, thanks to string-valued series, refinements in panel time setting, and join, etc.) I tried the recipe from the guide described under "Panel data marker strings" in chapter 4. Instead of the given line <genr markers = "%s:%d", marker, year> I tried a more compact thing, replacing the "year" series with the formula "1989+time" (where "time" exists already). This produced no error, but gave rubbish output in the new markers. I guess a formula expression is not allowed there, but then I guess it should be intercepted somehow. (The recipe as given worked OK.) thanks sven
