This is a cautionary tale: it can be more difficult that you'd think, converting code from 1-based indexing to 0-based, when you have nested loops to handle!

Thinking about it in retrospect, I'm actually surprised that a C-coder like you chose 1-based indexing for gretl's language. But it probably helps the average user a lot. I remember that on the python-numpy list (python is 0-based) this used to be a repeated issue raised by new users, many coming from Matlab.
