Dear developers,
On Thu, 5 Feb 2009, Henrique wrote (in user-list):
I had estimated a OLS using first difference variables, but I would
like to forecast the dependent variable in its level. I know that this is
possible on EViews, where we can estimate a regression D(y) = a + b D(x)
(where "D" states for the difference operator, "a" and "b"
are parameters,
and "y" and "x" are the variables) and obtain the predicted
"y" values
automatically. How can I do this on gretl?
And Allin had answered me:

Gretl will do that automatically for an ARIMA model, but not
otherwise. But you have the cum() function to integrate a
differenced series.
I would like to have this functionality for OLS and VAR. What do you
think? Is it possible?
