This is a stupid question: how to perform a Granger-Sims causality in R?

The GS causality test is like the Granger causality, but includes not only lags, but also leads of the variable. For example:

Yt = f( lags X, leads X).

I tried to create a Y(+1) in gretl and it was ok (except the name, which was Y(-1), but the time series was ok). However, in VAR windows, I cannot put it as a new variable (and neither can I put an AR(-1) instead of an AR(1)). I presume I will have to create the series somewhere, in a spreadsheet for example, and then go for it in Gretl.

So, this is just to ask if there is another way to do so.

Thank you a lot.

Claudio
