Gretl-Hansl "IDE" for Sublime editor
by Artur Tarassow
Dear all,
some weeks ago I've started to switch to the sublime editor
(https://www.sublimetext.com/) for writing gretl code.
Even though I like the simplicity of the gretl editor and its features
such as syntax highlighting and auto-itendation, it lacks some features
of modern IDEs such as "goto-anything", "goto-definition", custom
keybindings, fancy themes, git-implementation, snippets etc. which make
life much easier when working on larger projects. Don't get me wrong,
the gretl editor is great but was _never_ supposed to become a proper
software-development IDE but rather has another focus which is totally fine.
So I started to write the "Hansl-Gretl-Language" package for sublime
which includes the following features:
- 3 gretl build-systems (client mode, batch mode, and REPL mode) for
executing hansl code by means of sublime (plots are also working!)
- syntax-highlighting
- completion of gretl commands, accessors and keywords
- some snippet examples for speeding up coding
The project still has the following (known) issues:
- no auto-itendation (still have to figure out how this works)
- issues with some corner-cases which are not syntax-highlighted (regex
can become so hard!)
The package can be downloaded through sublimes package control system,
and can be found here:
https://packagecontrol.io/packages/Hansl-Gretl-Language
If somebody wants to participate on this project, check out the code on
my github repository:
https://github.com/atecon/Hansl-Gretl-Language
For those interesting in the sublime editor, check out "OdatNurd"'s
brilliant tutorials on youtube:

Enjoy the package,
Artur

critical values in Gretl
by Paolo Chirico
Hi,
I know how to calculate critical values by GUI, but I can't find the
correspondent command?
Is there a way to calculate them without creating an /ad hoc/ function?
Thanks

Non lines and arrows options in some languages
by Cristián Arturo Ducoing Ruiz
Hi,
I changed the language in Gretl to Spanish to teach a course. I realized
that in the editor window (GUI) for graphs there are no lines and arrows
options. I tested the same in Catalan and Galician. This is on purpose or a
bug?
Thanks

REMOVAL of the ridge package
by Artur T.
Dear User-list Members,
I am writing to inform you that the “ridge” package is going to be
removed from our package server today. This package was written by Sven
and me but got superseded by the “regls” addon written by Allin.
This includes the ridge estimator including cross-validation for
hyper-parameter optimization and will soon include a matrix-based
version as well.
The archived "ridge" package and its source code can still be found on
Github at https://github.com/atecon/ridge; simply navigate to the src
folder for access to its gfn file.
We hope this information helps! Thank you for being part of our user
list community and please don't hesitate reach out if you have any other
questions or concerns regarding this update or anything else related!
Best,
Artur

Problem compiling gretl
by Artur T.
Hi all,
with latest Ubuntu 23.04 I experience a problem trying to compile gretl.
When executing
<>
.././configure \
--enable-build-doc \
--enable-build-addons \
--enable-quiet-build \
--enable-openmp
</>
I obtain the error
<ERROR>
LaTeX Font Warning: Font shape `TS1/aer/m/n' undefined
(Font) using `TS1/cmr/m/n' instead
</>
Apparently some font (shape) is not available on the system.
I already have installed the packages
1. texlive-fonts-recommended
2. cm-super
but this does not help.
Does anybody have hint what to do? On google I cannot find anything useful.
Thanks
Artur

I disagree. The problem is not related to dummy variables _per se_; the
problem comes from the possibility that the Z matrix may not be full-rank
in a given subset.
I've tried a quick fix, but unfortunately, it's not general enough. I'll
be unable to get any more work done over the weekend; I'll see what I can
do next week, unless somebody beats me to it ;)
