Hello,<div><br></div><div>I&#39;m a young practioner of economics and I&#39;ve been trying to Seasonally Adjust a large number of datasets related to employment.</div><div><br></div><div>Since I&#39;m using a Mac, I&#39;ve installed both gretl and the X-12 option. I&#39;m fairly tech-savvy but hit a wall so I thought I&#39;d ask for some help.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Basically I have a dataset which includes the date, as &quot;date&quot;, by month; and employment, as &quot;emplab&quot;. If I open up the gretl UX I can easily Seasonally Adjust the data, save it to a .csv with a new variable and continue on. My problem lies in that I need to do this frequently, and as a batch. With this in mind I&#39;ve been attempting to get X-12 to work with gretlcli in Terminal so that I could do things as a batch that way.</div>
<div><br></div><div>My question is: Am I approaching this correctly? Is arima the correct command? I used &quot;help arima&quot; in gretlcli and didn&#39;t see an option to create a new variable for the SA data like the UX provides...</div>
<div><br></div><div>Thanks in advance,</div><div><br></div><div>Patrick.</div>
