What is "ihm"?

it's human-machine interface, a graphical interface (ihm is not in the right order because I was thinking in french, sorry).

Sorry, but I can't make sense of this without further explanation.
I would expect something like this:

t data lag1 lag2
1 100  -    -
2 102  100  -
3 107  102  100
4 110  107  102
5 115  110  107


I finaly understood how to do lags with libgretl using laggenr_from_to function, and now i have something functionnal now.
documentation of libgretl need experimentations to understand how to use some functions like laggenr_from_to, i discovered it add lag variable without need of allocations of the dataset.
Despite some black hole into the documentations (like the content of data structures), libgretl is a great library.
thanks for this work.
