Re: [Gretl-users] SVAR/SVEC (ps)
Thank you for your suggestion. I will try. In research I am more macroeconomic-oriented,
so it's the bull's eye .
"Historically" I accustomed to f[___]:=Module not to --xxx-yyy but it is quick

I have PhD in probability. I'm proud, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anatoliy_Skorokhod
was one of my referees. That was established school. Even my graduate diploma was
translated in USA. But for a Ukrainian economist, it is very difficult to get out from
obscurity.

Yes! Graphics has become much nicer.
But I'd never guessed the right order of commands if without your letter.
Well, it _is_ mentioned in the SVAR documentation...
sprintf still doesn' work in Linux. I'v got the chart
by IRFplot(&Mod, i, j)
???
P.S. I have seen your 2006 article long before I started using gretl
when I prepared a textbook chapter. So I well understand your level and
guess you are interested in really cool things to implement in gretl. I
feel slightly guilty to torture you with tiny bugs.
Thank you. If you're interested in SVARs, you can contribute too. As
you're probably aware of by now, gretl's SVAR module is written entirely
in hansl (source at
http://gretl.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/gretl/gretl-addons/SVAR/ ). If you
feel like improving on it (and believe me, there are lots of areas that
could benefit from some extra work), you're welcome to it! :)
Two things to cheer up. I am planning to enlist to gretl about 200
new
students every year. Imagine potential for gretl users. Once, using
google translator I looked for some Chinese gretl and econometric
references for my students from China. I found a Chinese language site
with a counter of gretl users: 8000 Taiwan 2000 Mainland. What will be,
when the rules against piracy in the mainland China will become
civilized. A don't know, may be it's blocked in the civilized world, but
the web is swollen with perfectly cracked e-viewses and statas. When I
changed to Linux, R and gretl, everybody looked at me as at a freak.
It's understandable that many people start using free software because you
don't have to pay for it. Our goal, however, is to provide a better tool
than commercial software, not just with a better quality/price ratio. In
some areas, I'd venture to say that our implementation of certain
statistical techniques is on par, if not better, than any other package
(commercial or not); in some other area, R is king. Of course, in some
other areas we're behind, no question about it. For example, I still think
that the greatest strength of Stata is the quality of their manuals. I
wish we had manuals comparable to theirs. Oh, well.
