New packages for autoregressive Probit and Hamilton filter
by Sven Schreiber
Hi everybody,
just a quick notice that recently two new contributed function packages
have seen the light of the gretl world:
- 'ARprobit', which implements the Kauppi&Saikkonen approach to estimate
a dynamic Probit model including an autoregressive term (in addition to
lags of the dependent dummy).
- 'hamilcycle', which applies the simple but already popular proposal by
Hamilton to do a regression-based filter of a time series to obtain a
cyclical component (based on an idea by Jack a year ago)
As always (sorry for being repetitive) you can get these and other
contributed packages online from within gretl ("fx" button at the
bottom, or through the menu File/Function packages/On server).
cheers

gretl crashes on expanding/closing windows... but probably a MacOs problem
by Artur Bala
Dear gretl developers,
On my MacOS High Sierra 10.13.6, if I "maximize" an output window - be it a
graphic, a script output or a model window - and "close" it
eventually clicking on "x", gretl (2020e-git) crashes; all windows get
closed including gretl's main window. A long and detailed system error
report is also produced (if it can help I can share it with you).
Best,
Artur

dbnomics without getting all the metadata?
by klaus.hasenbach＠web.de
Hello
I refer to to an old problem. Requesting a bundle of data from
dbnomics database after the versions "dbnomics 2.0" is very slow. It
seem to be correlated to the reason that all metadata of the times
series are transmitted and not only the values. With a newer version of
the api v22 it is possible to eleminate the metatdata. See the mail
below I have got from the folks of dbnomics.
Is there the the possibility to change the "dbnomics 0.39" in that way
which comes with the version 2021b of gretl for MS-Windows?
Regards
Klaus

Hi @Klaus <https://forum.db.nomics.world/u/klaus>, we added a |metadata|
argument that can be set to false to disable metadata.
It is documented in API doc: http://api.db.nomics.world/v22/apidocs

read-only variable
by Stefano
hello everybody,
I just noticed that in a gdt dataset the names of the variables imported
from a spreadsheet cannot be changed (error of command rename: "the
variable x is read-only"). Far enough, not much of an issue, but I am
curious: what is the rationale?
thanks
Stefano

Robust Estimation
by Brian Revell
Unfortunately the graph of a sequence of tau values using Robust
estimation quantile regression is unable to be edited. It would be
helpful if it were, even just to be able to change the title so one can
remember what the dependent variable was when next viewed.

Fixed problems with decimal comma and some contributed packages
by Sven Schreiber
Hello everybody,
as you know, gretl is one of very few scientific programs that support
regional-specific settings for the decimal number separator. (It can
handle the decimal comma, except if you're scripting yourself with the
built-in hansl language, where the decimal point/period is mandatory
internally.)
Recently we found out that this support caused a bug with some
contributed packages, especially when they produce plots. The bug would
only bite if you ran gretl with a decimal comma setting. (Note that even
if you run gretl with a translated interface, you are not necessarily
using the decimal comma, because that also depends on the user setting
"use locale-specific decimal separator". For example, I typically run
gretl in German, but not with the decimal comma.)
We identified the following six affected packages and then asked the
respective authors to fix them with respect to this subtle bug:
* heatmap.gfn -- heatmap plots
* kddensity.gfn -- kernel estimation of bivariate densities
* gnuplot_piechart.gfn -- A simple 2D pie chart
* yahoo_get.gfn -- Downloader of daily financial data from Yahoo
* CUB.zip -- Uniform-Binomial mixture model for ordinal data
* MDS.gfn -- Multidimensional Scaling
These packages have now been updated and fixed. So if in the past they
failed when you tried them, perhaps you should try again with the new
versions!
Also, let me stress again that bug reports are very important. Of course
the individual package authors are responsible for their packages, but a
subtle bug like this one really cannot be blamed on anybody. So don't
hesitate to report failures of contributed function packages here on the
list.
cheers
