Dear all,
from time to time I receive questions for some of my packages, and often
direct people to the manual of the package first. In case the manual is
written in the text format "help pckg-name" helps (even though I've
experienced that this doesn't work for all packages).
However, in case the manual is in pdf format this does not work. Is it be
possible to open the pdf automatically if one types "help cointARDL" into
gretlcli (take my own packg. as an example)? It seems that gretl newbies are
not always aware of how to access the help file... Maybe this would make life
easier.
Agreed. In many cases, "help gig" or "help SVAR" would be a
life-saver.
