[Gretl-devel] Can't suppress BFGS message from inside a function

Dear all, The scrip below illustrates the problem Hopefully, the printing of the script is transparent The problem is in that 'set verbose off' inside a function does not suppress BFGS message <hansl> open greene5_1.gdt -q set verbose off catch arima 2 1 0; 0 1 1; pop  --nc -q print "caught: arima 2 1 0; 0 1 1; pop  --nc -q" err = $error msg = errmsg(err) printf "This is error message: %s\n\n", msg printf "f() simply runs 'catch arima 2 1 0; 0 1 1; y  --nc -q'\n" printf "inside a loop, preceded by 'set verbose off'\n" printf "failed to suppress: f(pop, 3)\n\n" function void f(series y, int n[1])    loop i=1..n -q        set verbose off        catch arima 2 1 0; 0 1 1; y  --nc -q          set verbose on    endloop end function f(pop,3) <hansl> Oleh P.S.  this model gives excellent Q-statistics After the estimation, it is clear, AR(2) term is redundant But it is not clear before estimation The default init values are not outside the unit circle Since 2018a is coming it is difficult to find time to translate my method of transforming init values into c and try May be it would worth considering to send me hansl code of the Rissanen init values for me to experiment with
