Hi,
When I tried to download the Google stock data from 2015-01-02 to 2016-01-29 (Total obs:
271), gretl is importing all 271 but due to 5 day week data and some national holidays,
the end dates are mismatching. Gretl is noting the last date 2016-01-15. Is there anyway
that these dates are parsed as it is like tsibble object dates?

A sizeable portion of the hansl code for the "yahoo_get" package is
devoted exactly to this problem. The following snippet exemplifies:
<hansl>
nulldata 271
setobs 5 2015-01-02
include yahoo_get.gfn
list G = yahoo_full("GOOG")
</hansl>
More generally speaking, the "join" command provides a very flexible way
to import csv files with time series data. See Section 7.10 of the
User's Guide.
