[Gretl-devel] Improvement of logit regression modelling in gretl

A few suggestions for improving the handling of logit regression models in gretl: 1. Multinomial models, when the dependent variable is discrete but not binary and does not have a natural ordering does not have a native implementation in gretl yet. Please implement it. For example, include a radio button in the GUI where the user can choose between using a multinomial logit or an ordered logit (the current implementation) when the dependent variable is discrete but not binary. 2. Currently, it is necessary that the lowest value for the dependent variable is 0 and this is used as the reference category. Change this so that any integer values can be used for the dependent variable and any of these can be used as reference category. 3. Make it easy for the user to choose reference category by including radio buttons for First category, Last category or Custom value, as in e.g. SPSS. See the two attached screenshots.
